Default Gretsch Duo-Jet - a beautiful guitar!

I saw a Gretsch Duo-Jet hanging up at GC...took it down and played it and found it to be a really nice guitar!

Always remember it being George Harrison's first "proper" electric..

Never knew it was so beautiful!

I have the gold one and love it. Smooth as silk.

Same here! Recently walked into a guitar store, tried one, loved it so much I sold my tele and eventually bought the Gretsch (I have it in gold too!).

Sweet!

I'm hoping to make my next guitar the Gretsch Electromatic Pro Jet.
I'm partial to the sunburst, even if it was a black one that George played.
