The Eastwood RG Special is a tribute to the mystery guitar Rory Gallagher co-designed and received in 1975. It pairs a solid poplar body with a set maple neck and rosewood board, and runs one open-coil humbucker through a 3-way toggle for parallel humbucker, single coil and series humbucker tones. The layout is Les Paul Junior simple: one volume, one tone, wrap-around bridge. It suits players who want a raw, single-pickup rock guitar with more switching range than a Junior, and who like a short 24 3/4-inch scale.

The Eastwood RG Special is a 6-string electric guitar based on the "Rory Gallagher Model," a guitar said to have been co-designed by Rory Gallagher and delivered to him in 1975. It has a single open-coil humbucking pickup set into a solid Poplar body.
A 3-way toggle switch changes the pickup's output. Up gives humbucker in parallel, the middle position gives single coil, and down gives humbucker in series. Controls are 1 volume and 1 tone.
The neck is set Maple with a Rosewood fingerboard and dot markers. The bridge is a wrap-around design, and the hardware is Gotoh in nickel and chrome.
