  • Versitile? Most Definately!

    As reviewed by Isiah Dead Guy on 7/23/2010

    Gretsch is commonly known for its clean "pretty sounding guitars." This is entirely true that this guitar sounds "pretty" and gentle. But to those guitarists who enjoy the brash sounds from heavy distortion and crunchy blues. This can also be achieved. By turning down the master volume knob and the tone slightly while boosting the mids on your amp, the player will expirience the toatal badd-ass hard rock sound that many semi-hollows lack. As a fan of nu-punk i apriciate the fact that this guitar can go from anarchy to serenity with ease and no effects pedals. It is also a decent metal guitar. It works for shredding but i wouldn't recomend it. The sliding bridge can move if too much pressure is put on it in one direction (like fast palm muting) but for classic metal it has that hollow, distant, creepy sound. This guitar is has great tone, versatility, and feels great to play, all for a reasonable price. Currently at seven hundred dollars it isn't "cheap" but then again who wants to nuy a "cheap" guitar where you have to replace every piece to make it sound decent. This Guitar sounded and felt great right out of the box. I even left the packing paper under the bridge for a week cuz it still sounded great. So instead of having a diffrent guitar for each genre of music. Just do the smart thing and buy this guitar!

  • Fun Retro Geetar

    As reviewed by G H on 10/11/2010

    Added to the collection (flame top American Fat Strat, Swamp Ash LP). I was looking for a semi-hollow in the mid-low price range to round out the basic axe collection for a bedroom player. Considered the PRS. It sounded good, liked the look of the natural version, but decided I'd rather have a more traditional retro vibe (Beatles fan). I really liked the G5121, but I wanted a double cut, so I was set to buy the JL casino, then found the G5122 online?went with George over Paul and John, George was far too underrated anyway so I gave him props with the guitar choice ;-). The first arrived with some scratches. They probably weren't much worse than a guitar off the floor, but since I was buying it "untouched" I wanted any wear on the guitar to come from me. GC exchanged it no problem. Second one arrived flawless, and sounds excellent (as did the first). As others have mentioned, it really does look, feel, sound like a higher end guitar than it's price suggests. I had planned to swap out the pickups for TV Jones to get the brighter punchier mids and highs, but after living with the stock PUs for a while, I like them as is, and will put the money towards a new Vox VT+ amp. The main reason for getting the G5122 over the Casino for me came down to fit and finish on the lower end Casinos (took a gamble on the G5122 unseen that paid off in the end). To equal the G5122 in the Casino, IMO I would have had to go up in price to the JL Casino (which is offset by a hard case, where as the G5122 needs another C note to get the hard case not included). As a Beatles fan, I decided the G5122 still fit the bill, and if I was going to go the Casino route, I'd give the guitar lust a rest, and consider shelling out the money for a Gibson 330 over an Epiphone (more of investment with the Gibson name and retained resale value). To summarize, the G5122 turned out to be a really good choice, fun to play, sounds good, looks good. It makes a great guitar for a new player who wants value for money, and a great lesser priced semi-hollow for others who already have a guitar or two in the above a grand category who don't want to break the bank on yet another new guitar (but just gotta have one anyway). Two thumbs up on the G5122.

  • EPIC

    As reviewed by Zoe on 11/1/2010

    This is, quite truly, the best guitar I've ever played. The action is incredible, the sound is perfect, the Bigsby bar makes everything cooler, the guitar itself isn't too heavy, and it's just overall perfect.
