The Penguin has landed!

It was one small step of a decision, but one giant leap for my bank account. I had to sell my Annie to do it, but... the black Penguin has landed!

It sure is the king of bling, but it's also a beautiful thing. And it sounds gorgeous.

Unfortunately my Brian Moore and Steinberger are abandoned and jealous.

Thanks to the Forum members who helped me with the decision (the guilty shall remain nameless) ;)

Thanks folks!

And 'stings, brace yourself, I'm bringing it over - I need a holiday in Norway! ;)

I feel sad though that while I have a new git, folks on this Forum and over at the Gretsch Pages have had their instruments stolen over the last few days. It isn't fair. I hope you all get your instruments back OK...

Wow! She's more photogenic than mine! Nod, nod, wink, wink. And don't these DynaSonics sing? As for our girls going missing, it doesn't bear thinking about! :eek:

WOW, that is one sweet axe....er..Penguin.
I was tempted to get one of these when i got my G6121, the shop had the black and white one.
I don't think i'd be able to decide between them! and everyone knows what that means, :D

Poor old bank account.

Wow sexmachine, i want more pics, closeups of course.
(I'm asking myself how Mr. Tonewoods would have relicing this black penguin. I love his work. ...watch out his 6120 & White Falcon... (http://www.gretsch-talk.com/forum/gretsch-discussion-forum/15801-my-6120-a.html)watch out his 6120 & White Falcon)

She's even purdier than I thought she'd be! :D so glad you two are bonding nicely!!

(and you can happily blame me, I take the blame for all my Jet & Jet-adjacent manipulations :cool: I wear them like badges of pride)
