NGD! Gretsch Brian Setzer Nashville

[6L6]

Yes, it came equipped with TV JONES Setzer pups.

BTW, after fiddling with the mud switch, I've come to really like the tones I can get. Gonna leave it stock.

Hey All,

Congrats! On the Setzer!

I love Gretsch! My first guitar ever was a ProJet and I'd luv to upgrade to a George Harrison jet. The other gretsch I really want is a hollowbody like Duane Eddy's. Beyond those two gretsch guitars all I need is a tele and I have to admit I'm thinking maybe a Gibson firebird (3 P90s). And of course two three Acoustics.

Rockabilly and country go together so well.

I got to see BSO at ACL recently! Brian said that the Smithsonian had asked for and is now in possession of his original guitar. He said they came to his home to pick it up and all were wearing white gloves and treated it like an archaeological artifact and he laughed and told them it had never been treated so well

Cool! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You'll be a real gone guy playing that.

I'm looking at buying one of the center-block Gretsch's but can't decide which one....everybody is raving about them.
