From stem to stern, Eastman’s Juliet P-90 is one stylish solidbody dripping with attitude. Its unique offset hourglass single-cut body shape comes straight from the mind of master designer Otto D’Ambrosio, standing out from the pack with its raised center and sculpted 2-tone headstock for an aesthetic that’s commanding the attention of guitarists all over Sweetwater. This 6-string sounds just as wonderful as it looks courtesy of its dually outfitted Bare Knuckle Old Guard P-90s, serving up accompanying per-pickup Volume controls and a bridge pickup Tone knob for detailed sonic contouring with ease. The body-matching Okoume neck comes profiled to a Traditional Even “C” shape and capped with a cut of resonant ebony, wielding with comfortable command and radiused 12 inches for smooth navigation of all 22 frets. Abounding nickel hardware is the cherry on top of the Juliet P-90, ornamenting this axe from the Gotoh bridge and tailpiece combo all the way up to the complementing sealed-back Gotoh tuners.





Contoured for comfort





Whether you’re roaming the stage or kicking back on the couch, a solidbody like the Juliet P-90 offers session-long comfort while you play. Its lightweight body of Okoume supplies a strain-free foundation, boasting a backside contour for a flush feel against the player in addition to a comfortably deep cutaway and an offset waist for confident play over the knee when seated. An Okoume neck offers similar weight relief, sustaining well thanks to a 22-fret ebony fingerboard and falling into all players’ hands with assuredness via a traditional even “C” profile. The Juliet P-90 ensures that lengthy setlists, jams, recording slots, and practice sessions exhibit absolutely minimal physical toll to keep you locked in on the music.

Voiced by Bare Knuckle





Equipped with a pair of Old Guard P-90 single-coils by Bare Knuckle, the Juliet P-90 delivers a smooth and bright kick. Its stellar soapbar tones come courtesy of its alnico II magnets and vintage braided 2-conductor hookup. Rounded out with warm and hum-free tone across the mid and bass frequencies while attacking prominently at the top end, these Old Guard P-90s establish an excellent foundation for players of the blues, rock, pop, country, and alternative realms. Dial in the optimal tonal foundation for your tune with a 3-way pickup selector, and shape your sonic vision to a tee using the per-pickup Volume controls and accompanying bridge pickup Tone control.





A real smooth operator





The Juliet P-90 may boast a serious sonic bite, but its smooth playability is reaffirmed through a suite of stellar hardware appointments. Charming sealed-back Gotoh SD91-05M-L tuning machines line the headstock with dependable tuning stability; meanwhile, a Gotoh GE-1048 bridge with a GE101A tailpiece locks things down at the body end. Its trio of knurled and notched goldo control knobs join in the nickel-finished revelry and operate with precision authority. Treated to a real and naturally responding bone nut, plus stylish accenting from the pickguard and selector plate to the 2-tone headstock, the Juliet P-90 is a 6-string that looks sharp and is always ready to get up and go.
