Rated 5 out of 5

My current ?go-to? electric!

I?ve owned a few Gretsch guitars, including the Brian Setzer Nashville, and this is still my favorite. Lean and mean, as it should be. I added a Duane Eddy Bigsby arm, as well as a Callaham ?String Thru? bar. Combined with a chambered titanium Compton bridge, and it?s ?Rockabilly? till dawn! I also love this color! It?s very unique, unlike the other colors completely. It?s also becoming pretty hard to find on the used market.

While my bank account gently weeps...

Overall I am happy with this guitar. This is the first Gretsch I've owned. It doesn't match the picture very well - the colors seem more green on my computer screen but grayer in real life which is fine. The sound is nice, the guitar plays faster than I expected, but overall aesthetics keep it on the simplistic side which I find a little disappointing regarding the price paid and think some of their lower end models look nicer. The guitar still needs to be set up, there's a little buzz to it, but that doesn't come through with the speaker and overall it's growing on me. Don't get me wrong, I like it and don't regret the purchase, but I don't think it's for everyone and Gretsch's other models may be better suited for others.

Gretsch holiday for me

This guitar arrived safe and ready to tune up and play. Couldnt ask for better service. My only complaint is directed at Gretsch ..because w all the incredible improvements made to these guitars over the last 13yrs since FMIC took over production, the same ABR-1 budget bridge is still on these guitars. The Low E keeps poppin off w travis picking and the unwound strings rattle. So.. you are forced to have a luthier redress the saddles slots and also get the radius to match the 9.5" fretboard radius.. No worries, I installed a Tru-Arc serpentune SS bridge and 11 gauge strings. The guitar performed perfectly last weekend w a one hr gig and never went out of tune even in a room that was 67 degrees :) Cheers Guys, you are getting more of my business. Merry Xmas. Tv
