Brand new item!

Just ordered one of these, been a Gretsch player for some time (My autographed guitar is an inexpensive Gretsch)... Maple back, sides & Maple neck, (Not laminated...spoke with a Gretsch representative), solid spruce top. Rosewood fingerboard w/ Fishman electronics. Parlor sized with a 14" bout, in between a "Grand Concert" 000 sized and a "Baby Taylor"....

Pretty excited...

I don't like it.

But I'm not a guitar player, so nevermind.

Not really my style, but happy you found a new axe you like. How does it sound? This reminds me, I need to replace my acoustic guitar soon.

If you're looking for a penguin suit guitar, this is pretty nice:

Nice gretch man! I've always wondered about those penguins or whatever they are. Onboard fishman too, very cool. All that maple and spruce, kind of Rev. Gary Davis school, gonna be tres bright.

Thanks. Gretsch is more widely known and respected for its electric models, both the "White Falcon" & "The White Penguin" being their most iconic. The Brian Setzer, The Chet Atkins and the "Round-up"...putting out that Gretsch twang....I ordered this early on, so I know the serial number will be from an early run....just can't wait.
Cool

I think it looks pretty cool... I have always liked guitars a little out of the norm.. & a white gretsch certainly fits that bill. Enjoy!
