RJ Ronquillo is incredible! He's always got good ideas and he makes everything sound so nice - in sharp contrast to what ShiceSquad's gonna do once we get our hands on this baby!
Wow! I thought that Jazz guys who played 7-string guitars did so to play the bass lines as well, but here it is so masterfully played on a baritone. So fine. I'm not that familiar with baritone guitars, but this is marvelously soulful.
This video sold me on buying one of these! No regrets! It's just great, I get compliments all the time and its a great writing tool! Great playing RJ :)
They do look big, but the weight isn't a reflection of their size. The bodies are actually tone-chambered mahogany - which helps with tone as well as keeping some of the weight down :)
Really amazing video.. forget the guitar, the hands making it sing are outstanding. RJ is a great guitarist!! BTW - the "greensleeves" at the end was a cute touch. Outstanding musician.
I saw RJ demo the Danelectro 66BT and bought one right away. I really like it. I just can't get enough of RJ's baritone guitar videos, he makes me think about this instrument........ thanks RJ.....
Sounds great. This guy is good. According to the Eastwood Guitars email that got me here, this is an instrumental version of "Wrecking Ball". I guess, I saw that video once but I was looking more than listening. Thankfully, he's wearing more clothes than Miley was. LOL.
All the metal parts and the fingerboard look and sound awesome, RJ’s a great player and Eastwood’s a great company with a nice site. Just wish there was a less ugly version. Some dinosaurs may be best left dead.
Like these guitars tonally and conceptually, but every Eastwood I've played has been very , oddly, awkward and unnatural feeling,- like a power tool.(NOT, as is said, "organic")Assume this is an intentional throwback to vintage design.Going on the premise that you can adjust to anything; perhaps, someday, I will yet get around to it.The baritones sound great, worth a little struggle.
The best kind of demo: Where someone doesn't show off...they just play a song!! And tastefully done too! Big congrats to RJ Ronquillo.
One Million per cent, correct!
RJ was killing it back then, and what a Cadillac of a guitar!
I came hear looking at baritones... but I was blown away by this guys wrecking ball cover... insane!
Shows how beautiful the song actually is...and he didn't have to get naked to play it!
Many years later and I still think about this review every few months. That Wrecking Ball cover is just perfect.
gawd. that wrecking ball cover is just a total jaw dropper. what a musician. holy crap!
Constantly blown away by this guy! Spectacular! Thank you!

So how does your tremolo work then? Mine is very bad...
I never tought I could ve enjoyed miley cyrus wrecking ball like I did here
Beautiful guitar, beautifully played. I could listen to you all day, RJ.
Eastwood Guitars, congratulations on this excellent instrument.
I love the way RJ is in love with this guitar. Cant wait to have one in my collection.
Really amazing video.. forget the guitar, the hands making it sing are outstanding. RJ is a great guitarist!! BTW - the "greensleeves" at the end was a cute touch. Outstanding musician.
What a great player! What a tone!
There's a lot of amazing "Internet" guitar players, Ronquillo is simply the best.
It's always a joy listening to your demos RJ!
RJ's playing is so tasty and his tone is magnificent. The world needs more RJs!
beautiful played, also i always have Ron Jeremy in my mind when i here this song.
its kinda late but what song is it ?
I agree that this is wonderful looking and sounding guitar, but can we just recognize for a second that this man fixed the problem of modern music?
actually googled wrecking ball to be sure it was what I heard ..... only this sounded nice to my ears
Woaaaaaaaaah. Excellent interpretation of that song. Definitely going to learn this!!!
Dude great playing. You are all over the place. That's what I like.
What Child Is This at the end of the video is fantastic. A thousand points to RJ.
Great playing dude. I ordered one based on this video.
Damn RJ! Light the world on fire much! Holy crap that was some fine playing guy! How about an RJ and Jazz trio album! More please!
This demo is amazing, ordered mine 🔥
Masterful! Thanks, RJ! (and Eastwood!!)
how`s this guy not world wide famous? well maybe he is lol XD the RHCP should have hired HIM
Now he's gonna be!
All his jams are top-notch and the Eastwood guitars he demos all really stand out from the pack!
Not everyone want's to be a starfucker..
love this guys playing...great guitars too
My dream guitar
Still my favorite airline and an awesome tune!
perfect, style and execution wise.Loved it,,,tight and blufunksurfy.
Mesmerizing. And such a beautiful gitfiddle. Can u do some tabs.. i want to try on my new sidejack.
I rarely share videos of this kind, but in your case I did. Very nice. Today's art is in the demos.
that's some mad jazz fingerstyle! i think the baritone tuning works well with the comping
Nice playing Man!!! Really Cool !!! :)
Wow,I’m not much of a fan of covers usually but the ‘non Neil’ Wrecking Ball? Excellent! Really should record an album of RJs instrumentals.
beautiful song the first one!
amazing rendition of a hit
STUNNING 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶
Sounds beautiful!
It takes true skill to make that song into music. Nicely done!
That was awesome! Fantastic job, as always. :)
I am in love with this guitar!
I got one... and very disappointed. The trem sucks.
I saw RJ demo the Danelectro 66BT and bought one right away. I really like it. I just can't get enough of RJ's baritone guitar videos, he makes me think about this instrument........ thanks RJ.....
Great take on a good song
Awesome Playing!
Nice looking axe,
love the Bigsby,
if you are satisfied with the tone and action looks a good price,
however I see they don't include the case
Now that's how to sell a guitar. Suddenly i need a baritone guitar
I am loving this guitar. Once I get better....I will own one.
Amazing........amazing.
Sounds great. This guy is good. According to the Eastwood Guitars email that got me here, this is an instrumental version of "Wrecking Ball". I guess, I saw that video once but I was looking more than listening. Thankfully, he's wearing more clothes than Miley was. LOL.
You got a new fan bro. Well done.
Woo-hoo! Stop tail model soon to be the new member of the ShiceSquad arsenal and fitted with Airline VVSC single-coil pickups!!!
wooow.. beautiful sound!!
I hate that fucking song with a passion, but this guy... this fucking guy. I got goosebumps
That’s a pretty guitar. Nice playing too!
There should be more demos of the map Baritone!!!
Impeccable taste! Anybody know what tune starts at 4:07?
If you could pick only one youtube video...this would be the one i would choose to take to the island..with my island girl of course.
RJ pure taste!!
this right here is my dream guitar. How I wish I could get one in Colombia :(
Just realized he's playing Wrecking Ball.
Jeezuz, that was good...
Thank you.
WoW, amazin player.
What’s the first song please ? Tab is available somewhere ?
my weekly listen.
It is not my song(wrecking ball),but he plays it wonderful on a great guitar.Really good.
Alguien me podría decir si es que la canción que interpreta en el min 2:30 tiene nombre?
I need the tabs to this version of wrecking ball
GOOOOOOOAAAALLLL!!
If ever; this should be played at Miley's funeral...
is he playing wrecking ball at the beginning?
All the metal parts and the fingerboard look and sound awesome, RJ’s a great player and Eastwood’s a great company with a nice site. Just wish there was a less ugly version. Some dinosaurs may be best left dead.
M A J O R C O O L !!!
Top!
Wow. what was that amazing song you played for the first two minutes?
+PINKO BALOBA it's a far more tasteful version of Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus would you believe haha
It takes a great musician to take a song and change it beyond recognition while making the new rendition great. In my opinion better. Amazing.
What's the jazz ditty right after the Miley Cyrus tune, please?
I'm kind of glad im not the only one who noticed that Miley tune..I was going to feel stupid if I was the only one...haha
Can you remove the pickguard? It looks like its just screwed on but I'm curious.
sure, just screws.
eastwood guitars Thanks for the info!
Eastwood guitars are sweet & tasty like a bag of Skittles!
Awesome demo ! What's the opening tune ?
Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus. Surprising, I know.
Were you using the Swart in the background for this recording?
If I use it for tremolo its fine, its just not for dive bombs 🙂
You got that right, Tim. Bigsbys were designed WAAAAAY before divebombing became a "thing" haha.
What distortion was used in the middlepart?
beau son ... belle gueulle ...
tabs anywhere for your version of wrecking ball?
RJ I bet your mamma's proud!
Nice playing. We can see an amp in the video. What amp are you playing over?
Thanks! Amp is a Swart STR Tweed - swartamps.com/swart_space_tone_reverb-tweed.htm
Tx RJ
Tabs please!!! If you have a soul you won't make me sit in front of UA-cam transcribing Miley
Shice girlfriend wants to know: WHAT IS THE SONG AT THE BEGINNING? RJ original or something we might already know?
"Wrecking Ball" by Miley Cyrus
R.J. Ronquillo Ronquillo proves YOU CAN polish a turd. XD you are the man.
R.J. Ronquillo So beautiful. You've brought tears to my eyes.
How is it that there's always some idiots that have to give unwarranted thumbs down?
If you give a video like this one a thumbs down, you don't deserve to live.
What scale length is this baritone?
+Connor Nepomuceno This one is 27" - for more info you can check it out here: www.eastwoodguitars.com/airline-map-baritone-1/
What does the neck feel like?
The neck is really thin, comparable to Gibson slim taper profile.
Tabs?
Any tabs for this?
!!!
Swart!
