Stumbled onto this guitar by accident on YouTube Sunday afternoon. Saw an excellent review at Andertons UK video page. Did some homework and pulled the plug on Monday afternoon , arrived at my house Wed. morning. FAST SHIPPING. Triple Boxed! 95% reviews of this guitar are positive, you get the minor few where needs set up, which i was expecting. Came with a Gretsch inspection checklist. Slight tuning, and I was off. Set up was spot on! No too high or low, no sharp frets. Tuners hold tune! Lightweight body. Chambered, which i love. Hold sustain! Neck is similar to a Les Paul. Smooth, Fast. I played clean for awhile, until i hit the GAIN..and this axe sounds more like AC/DC than my Gibson SG. LOVE the TONE. 5 stars to Gretsch and zZOUNDS! Amazing axe for the money, honey.

I just purchased a london grey model, This is the best playing guitar out of the box that i have purchased in 5 years, no sharp frets, the nut was cut perfect, i did lower the bridge, intonation was spot on. I do not know how you can beat this guitar, it is not heavy, the best sounding pickups i have heard, they are a louder, fatter sound than filter trons. no Gibson mud tone here, not a flaw on this guitar, beautiful finish, high quality tuners, i have added a Dusenburg les trem and it fits like a glove. the neck is a little wide but front to back is thin, very comfortable. I purchased from zZounds, very fast shipping. The body is chambered cutting down the weight and adding big tone. This guitar puts a Les Paul to shame for a lot less money.

I’ve owned a White Falcon and while I loved that guitar it was just too big. This G5222 Gretsch feels and sounds fantastic. While it has that Gretsch twang it still has a nice deep tone. Fit and finish is flawless. This guitar will support any action you want. High, low or really low. The Mahogany finish is more of a cherry red so I swapped out for the Jade Grey. Very happy with this color. Next guitar will be a similar Gretsch with a Bigsby.
