Never Thought This Would Be So Great

I purchased this guitar just last month after picking it up and playing around on it at my local guitar center. I immediatly fell in love with it!! My main guitar is a Fender Strat, so the tone and sound was completly different from what I was used to. After non stop playing for about two or three weeks, I decited that this guitar is not a replacement for my fender, but a tool to achieve the sounds I created, and the sounds I desired. The strings that come on this are terrible!! Stringing this guitar is another task in its self, it is kind of tricky. However, it just takes practice to get it down. I use Fender 150 bullet .09 strings on this, and the differece between the origional strings to the fender strings is absolutly mind blowing!! If you are looking for a different style guitar, something to give you a country/rockabilly yet fully rock capable guitar, this is it! I suggest playing it at your local guitar center first though, i had a few friends say it wasnt working with their style, and their hands; however, ive had people play my guitar and offer to buy it on the spot. All in all, A+ on this guitar. Im glad Gretsch put out a quality, affordable guitar to its customers who cant see them selves caughing up $3000 for a guitar. Just remember, it is the SMALL things that will make this guitar your baby!! (new strings, some fretboard oil and treatment, bridge adjustment, action adjustment) I run this through an all tube Marshall JCM 2000 dual lead with a 1960 4x12 cab....simply AMAZING!!

fun to play

I purchased my pro jet at the beginning of summer. I tried out a lot of electric guitars and was planning on spending a lot more money. I honestly had no interest in the Gretsch brand until this beauty caught my eye. I tried it out and instantly fell in love. The guitar plays great-good action (which I was able to lower to make it great). Great looks-I got the black although the sparkle finishes are fun but a little too flashy for me. Great tones, this guitar is a telecaster and a Les Paul and everything in between (for under $500). The skinny: I have short fingers and a super wide neck is tough for me to play-this guitar feels and plays like it was made for me. If you find this is a problem for you, this is your guitar. That being said, if you have long fingers this guitar may cramp your style. The one thing I must add-buy the hardshell case for this guitar-it is more money but it is the only case that will hold it because of the bigsby. It will not go into a Les paul case (although it seems like it will)-just get it and thank me later.

Gretsch! fender...

When i walked into guitar center i knew nothing about guitars so I asked a worker and he narrowed it down to a gretsch or a mexican made strat. I imediattly felt I had to have the gretsch with the franklin stap no other guitar looked or sounded as good as a gretsch. as i got more experianced i realised that i really got a deal thath was easy on the pocket it sounds great, replaced the knobs with chrome skulls and hooked it up to a vox amp what else could sound better with the same price tag ha nothing. its also a solid punk, rock,alternative, country, indie sound that works with anything definattly would recomamed it

Don't pass this up!

I picked one up in my local Guitar Center. I bought the black top - pure class. Beautiful mahogany back and sides. Great workmanship. I fell in love with its pure sweet tones - clean and clear, great sustain. I can feel every note throughout its entire body and neck. Great action. It can handle all styles. I record my own music and every guitar I've ever owned has its own voice. This one's a standout.

Better than any gibson or fender at the same price

I almost walked out the door with a different guitar, but I saw this guitar on the wall and decided to give it try. I was satisified with the tone, and it played great. When I looked at the price tag it was over. The only real issue I have with this guitar is it's ability to stay in tune. I heard other people have this same problem with this guitar. New tuners should fix that problem. The bigsby kind of gets in the way a bit, I've never been a fan of trem. This guitar nails any fender or gibson at the same price level to the wall. Forget epiphones. If you're looking at an epi, les paul go with one of these instead.
