Re: New Gretsch Day
nice! I love the DeArmonds, there is a blue one just like this up the road I been foaming over for months.
It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa - that's not my batman cup.
...love the guitar. Are you going to replace the pickups? I always hear people either love or hate the stock ones on the Electromatics.

Re: New Gretsch Day
i used to think the Silver sparkle was too much bling until i played an old (1964) red sparkle Duo Jet and realized that Gretsch is ALL about the bling even if it is just the big Orange version. Nice g'itar!
"I always hear people either love or hate the stock ones on the Electromatics. "
i think that's because the Electromatics have had 3-4 different pickups since the late 90s and the new 'buckers they've put on the last year or two certainly seem to be a love/hate thing, but those DeArmonds are Sweet!

Nice guitar.
I totally dig the DeArmonds in my '96 Silver Jet. They are my fave pickup other than Jazzmaster PU's.

Re: New Gretsch Day
Very nice. One day I'll get the nerve to buy a Gretsch. I'm just worried about non-American craftsmanship. Does that make me an ass? Yeah, maybe. But those are some expensive foreign-made guitars.
