This is a big ol gal, the G2622T is the same thing with a thinner body if anyone was wondering. A little more live rock friendly maybe.

These are fun guitars, but not the best if you're looking for a Gretsch, or even hollow body IMO. It's all budget hardware, the tailpiece isn't actually a Bigsby, it's Bigsby "licensed", cheapo tuners, etc. Nobody on the planet payed $750 for this, and it's frequently on sale. I think it'll leave the buyer always wanting just a little bit better because it hints at being an expensive guitar. Don't get me wrong though, it's a solid $300 purchase.

I would really suggest checking out the Ibanez Artcore AS73 if you don't need the tremolo. They are just fantastic and play well above their price, even biting at the Gibson ES-335. You can get them for almost this price once you apply the usual coupons.

I was hoping for that Cadillac Green G5422TG that popped twice last year... or a G5420T at least. I have an Adorama gift card eating a whole in my pocket to boot.

I had been trying to purchase this guitar for a month from GC but it was never in stock. Every order ended up being back order. And I actually ended up getting an Ibanez AS73 from Reverb for $250 shipped. I second that guitar. Once set up with new strings, it's very nice.

But in any case, I've played this Gretsch before in stores and it is very nice. I would have jumped on this a few months ago.

Bought one of these the last time it came around. Great guitar. I switched out the knobs for electromatic knobs and strap buttons. Also removed the pickguard. Stellar guitar for sure and the pickups are great. A little more Les Paul than filtertron, but they are great sounding. I added a metal switch tip as well. Keep in mind if you choose to swap the switch tip that only the metric sizes work for that. To those who snagged one, enjoy!

Purchased, and mine arrived today. What a guitar for $300!

Also, mine is more red looking than shown on the website.

Yes, there are some tradeoffs at this price range, but man, this is a real winner at that price.
