Gretsch is known for its clear sounds. Its best known artists were people like Chet Atkins and George Harrison(the Beatles) I was dismayed by the gentalman who sound checked this guitar. He used an overdrive while soundchecking. I could not get a good sample of the sound of the guitar with all that overdrive on. I would advise when you are sound checking for a perspective buyer, you use clean tones too emphisize the sound of the guitar and not the effects. Thank you.

I agree with Rick. When you're switching between different pups there wasn't much difference since you buried them under all that distortion. I don't have a problem with overdrive, but please use more clean tones.

I was pretty shocked how this guy knows so little about this guitar. Firstly, this guitar has an ebony fretboard. not a rosewood one. Secondly, when he started talking about the "bridge" he was actually inspecting the Bigsby vibrato instead pointing out that the (real) bridge was an ebony spaced roller bridge. Meanwhile, when he finally got the part name right, he got the vibrato model number wrong since he said "BC3" instead of "B3C". Thirdly, it's sad that he thinks that the Filter'Tron pickups are single coil when everyone else knows that they are humbuckers. Lastly, he forgot to tell everyone that the body has a maple top on the body as well. P.S. - I agree with Rick as well.

Wow, this has got to be the worst review of anything
music-related, ever. But you're doing your best, and
that's what counts...

Please, next time test the cleans along with
the distortion sounds, and explain what you're using
to generate the distortion.

Also read up on the actual specs of the instrument
in question.
