I've been reading up, checking out the videos, reading the reviews and  I'm kicking around the idea of getting an Eastwood Hi-Flyer, anyone on this board have any experiences they'd like to share? I'm mostly concerned with the tremolo, is it crap or will it stay in tune? Thanks in advance!

im looking into one too the trem looks decent from what ive seen and the looks pretty nice ,can i get it in white or black ?

The guitar & bass player in my band play Eastwood.  Both of them have upgraded electronics,bridge etc......Overall I know they both love the versions they have.  Guitar has the Map, & The the 59 custom 3P, Bass has The Airline. 

I think it may be hit or miss with Korean/Chinese made guitars. I own a Dearmond that is very well made from Korea and a Chinese Danelectro that has a binding tape issue other than that it's ~ okay. I did check out a Chinese Telecaster that was pretty crappy all the way around.

I cannot speak for Eastwood's Hi-Flyer in particular. However, I have been playing an Eastwood Sidejack for over a year now and I can not speak highly enough for it. Rag on China and Korea all you want but their current production methods meet or exceed the standard here in the US and the Eastwood guitars show it.

yeah ive got the humbuckers which i believe are schallers. For a surf tone theyre surprisingly good clean, even though theyre humbuckers. They sound great. Mines got the wraparound tailpiece(no trem). Also the price i got it for is totally thrown off by the fact i picked it up in Ecuador in what i think might be the only used guitars shop in the country, thats to say i think i got a good deal.

I cant personally speak for how they compare to the eastwoods, but id like to play one for sure.

I've always liked the Univox, hi flyer, but man, a decent one on ebay can get kinda pricey. How are the pick ups in yours? Looks like there's two versions, black P-90's and some kind of off white version. Hang on, I'm coming from a surf guitar perspective, so keep that in mind.

I picked up a 70's univox hi-flier and it has exceeded all expectations. Just another option for a mosrite copy for you to check out.

The guitar player from OFF! has at least two of them, and Kurt cobain used them on bleach and in utero.

I picked mine up for 450$ with the case and some spare strings/cables.
