Very nice looking guitar. Finish and board bring some nice vintage appearance. And at least $60 less than usual new prices.

Is it worth spending $$110 more than this for a classic vibe Squier or anniversary version for a beginner?

For a beginner, no, it's not worth spending over $100 more. Both models have satin finishes which is nice. But, if you're a more knowledgeable player, you will get alnico pickups if you buy those higher priced models. This model has ceramic pickups which lack the clarity of alnico.

The Bigsby on that Gretsch will mean it will be harder to keep it in tune

The gretsch is a much better guitar. But also something with a very different sound. Like asking if you want a coupe EV or a Jeep.

I wouldn't know a good guitar if you hit me in the head with it. I appreciate the expert opinions here, though I will concentrate on TIG welding instead of beginning guitar at 62.

Good price. It's the same thing, as far as I can tell, as the Affinity Limited Edition from Guitar Center/Musician's Friend, except different colors are available. It's at least $25+ less after all available discounts from Adorama so it's a good deal.

My only issue would be if it arrived with a problem. It would be a more of a pain to exchange.

That aside, this is apparently a very solid starter guitar.

Lol. I was just noticing this is made from popular Poplar. If the grain looks like the picture it has a nice look.

Actually it's not a terrible deal. I don't care for the large headstock, 21 frets, or the greeny scratch plate. But Affinity's can be nice. It's almost on par with my $60 StratBay.

And it's at least $40 too high. You can probably find a used one for a bit less that's been well cared for and super setup.

But if you like it then it's relatively low priced.

Ebay/Craigslist/pawnshops/etc are littered with Affinity models for less than $100, not seeing the value of double the price.
