Absolutely beautiful, but not for me! Mind you, nor is anything good looking and new. Whenever I see a guitar I imagine myself playing it in my usual haunts: the local pub, the local open mic', friends house parties, a wet and windy clifftop campsite in Pembrokeshire.... With me Carter picking cowboy chord songs..... You get the picture!
Tatty clothing and a tatty guitar I just find so much more comfortable. I even look at my second hand plywood Godin 5th Avenue and hope that it will gain some signs of wear soon and not look quite so "smart". LOL!!!

Though I’m personally on the hunt for the Lollar equipped Eastman Romeo, I have first refusal on an incoming Romeo LA which is a beautiful Celestine Blue! Will update you soon. IMG_1650750193.387072.jpg

I played a Romeo a while back with a Goldburst finish. It played great and was light as a feather.
When I think of guitars with transparent blue finish, I think PRS. Weren't they the first modern builder to do this finish (circa early 90's). D'Aquisto was probably the first to build a fully carved guitar with this finish. Rumour has it Eastman has a custom shop in CA. I don't see why they couldn't build you one of their carve-top guitars and finish it in blue.

Thank you
Thank you for sharing this. There was a time when I couldn't sit still for music like this, what a poverty of the spirit that was.

I could have been tempted to buy a blue archtop guitar because I think they look so interesting, but my wife really doesn't like blue guitars, so I have resisted. My archtop is a fairly typical tobacco sunburst, which looks great, but... well, it's not blue. - Glenn
