To answer the question, I really liked the 184 but a trade for a very nice strat became available and I made the move. This eventually led me to a deal on a Gretsch 6122-1959, because it was that old Chet tone that I was after all along. Can't say enough about the 184's quality of build and neck though. Would have cost me about 600 to buy and install TV Jonses on it, and I probably should have done that, as I find the thinner body and lighter weight...just more comfortable to play even while sitting.
