Crap, i just got this one for $299 from the other deal. Pricematched it at Musicians Friend for that Frown


I wonder if they will pricematch the lower price after the fact - it does say they will match a price up to 45 days after hahahaha

Gretsch isn't owned by Fender, it is owned by Gretsch family, but all operations for Gretsch are run by Fender. Including production, handling warranties, marketing, distribution, etc.

I like it *A LOT* - I got it as an impulse buy because of the price, thinking I'd likely just hold and resell. Well, now I don't know anymore. I did the same thing with the G5210-P90 w/ bigsby and I think it's going to be really hard to let go of either of them at this point. Great guitars out of the box. And they definitely feel well-beyond their price point for the price.

BTW: I got MF to do a second pricematch so am getting another $20~ back at this point Smilie

And design and build. The Gretsch family are owners in name only.

I think it's short for "Broadtron" which are the types of pickups on it. The Jet Two 90 refers to P90 pickups.

Yeah I noticed the pickups after posting. You're definitely correct.
