"It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This"

Feature:
All of the components are top of the line. Really couldn't ask for more.

Quality:
Fit and finish are excellent. No flaws.

Value:
You can find cheaper guitars, but you can't find one that sounds better for any amount of money.

Desirability:
This is a beautiful instrument. I especially love the "thumbnail" markers on the fretboard.

Sound:
Sound is incredibly clear, mellow-- especially with flat-wound strings. Sounds great with a flat pick or finger style. Excellent solo voice, also blends well with other instruments.

Support:
Haven't had to try to reach Gretsch.

Overall:
I honestly don't ever expect to be looking for a replacement. If it were lost or stolen, I would certainly replace it. The only thing that I don't like about it is the weight-- it's a heavy instrument, but, hey, that goes with the territory-- they're all that way.
