      I’m pretty stoked. This was totally a spontaneous purchase, I wasn’t in the market for a new guitar, but the deal was too good to pass up. First new guitar in 20 years!

        Squier signed by oh no big deal the Fab Four from their Ed Sullivan Show debt.

        Think it, be it.

          Oh shit, that’s fake as hell. That’s a Squier strat, and Squier didn’t exist back then. Where did you see that?

            Hm, I thought it was suspicious they'd have something like that in the office right across from a "Catch Me If You Can" poster signed by Frank Abagnale. Maybe he sold it to them 😂

            Damnit! Why would they make something like this?

              LOL… it has an “authenticity guarantee”. What the hell does that even mean?!

                "we" "guarantee" that it "is/n't" "authentic"

                  New Guitar Day

                  I've never owned a Gretsch, but it's still on my must-have list.

                  Is yours the Country Gentleman model ?

                    No, it’s the Electromatic series G5422T. I love this guitar, but it’s kind of a specialized niche guitar for me, I’ll only be using it for specific things where I need “that” sound. So it was impossible to justify spending multiple thousands for the Country Gentleman. I got this at a steal for way under $1000, so at that price it was hard to pass up but I still struggled a bit with pulling the trigger. Glad I did though, it’s an awesome guitar.

                                I recommend spaying/neutering your Gretsch guitars, folks. Don’t be like me. The Sweetwater Stork informed me today that I should be expecting a new arrival this week:

                                  @xtcclassic That looks amazing. I played a Gretsch G6122T-62 Chet Atkins once but man they're just so damn big. Same goes for the ES-335. Telecasters are the one for comfort IMO (regardless of your opinion of Fender!)

                                  The devil is in the detail..

                                    Oh I’m a longtime Tele player, if I could only have one guitar it would be a Tele. This Gretsch thing is a fairly new thing to me. I bought my first one less than a year ago. I’ve had my Tele for 20 years or so.

                                        How you getting on with it? I am looking for a new telecaster atm..

                                          Since that pic was taken, I’ve replaced the pickups with TV Jones (Setzer bridge and Classic neck) and replaced the stock bridge with a stainless steel Tru-Arc. It sounds absolutely amazing now, it’s tied with my Tele as my number one. Never thought I’d see that happen. Here it is now:
