splake Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Boys, does anyone know the difference between the Texan and the Eldorado. It is just cosmetic looks. Pick guard on the earlier ones. But the later years Eldo's look identical to the Texans. Any one know? Also, is this info in Gruhns Guitar encylcopedia? I not pulled the trigger on an encyclopedia yet, and i may need too. thanks in advance. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el capitan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The main differences are the Texan is round shouldered & has an unbound fingerboard whilst the Eldorado is square shouldered & has a bound f/b. The Eldorado has more binding on the back & front of the body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
