From Eastwood:
It's been over 12 years since we brought back the Airline 59 2P model, the one that Jack White was well known for. But what was he using before that? The very rare late 1960s Crestwood Astral II. If you're familiar with The White Stripes you'll know that this is the model Jack White played before he got the more famous Airline guitar. The Crestwood Astral II can be heard all over their first few albums, especially on songs like "I fought Pirhannas," "Screwdriver," and "Let's Build a Home."
