All of these Adorama Gretsch deals are insane. I've bought 2 Streamliners and 1 Electromatic on these deals in the past year. The quality is top notch other than the tuners.

Just bought that coral double cut with bigsby for 300. This is more expensive but feels like the better deal. That Hudson sky color looks amazing as well.

Yep, me too. From my understanding these Electromatics are one step up from the Streamliner series, which is what coral Gretsch guitar is. But I agree it seems like the better value and I just love the coral color.

Also, it states the Streamliner has Push/Pull coil-splitting on Master Volume and a real bone nut. Don't see those feature on the Electromatic posted here.

I'm in. These have been calling me for years, and I've finally dropped the excuses.

I like the full tail B70 Bigsby on this one, which is the biggest reason I'm here instead of buying the Coral Streamliner with the smaller Bigsby that mounts as a bridge plate. I like the single cut style slightly better as well.

Hudson Sky is an amazing shade over quilted maple. I can hardly wait to see mine.

The solid color Cerulean Smoke almost got me because it looks so awesome with the gold hardware, but I have just a little bit of concern about the gold wearing off a bit over the years as a working guitar.

Others that came very close are Azure Metallic and Airline Silver.

Gretsch really does have a fantastic selection of colors.

Ordered the Hudson Sky on Wednesday and it showed up on Friday. Shipped well and double boxed. Absolutely beautiful guitar. Wife wasn't happy but when I inboxed it she understood, ha. Love the sound coming out of this and happy to have a hollow body. I also almost went for the cerulean smoke but just wasn't a huge fan of the gold. Id have probably pulled the trigger on the orange but no sale there.

BTW Cap 1 gave me 7.5% cb but I just got offered 13.5% after looking at the site again.

I got the same deal from Cap1 so I finally bit. The 13.5% is only for first time Adorama shoppers but the 7% helped me finally go for it. I'm looking forward to this. Its been hard to keep passing up this deal since I've been looking at this guitar for quite a while.
