Im into Rocka/psychobilly, country, bluegrass, blues and punk and some jazz.
My first gretsch was 60s clipper I traded a computer for when I was 18.. Wish I still had her..

Currently own a 01' 6120SSU, 05' 5125 and I JUST recieved a 04' 6120jr that Im still evaluating.
Have a 68 Country Gent that needs a complete overhall, its been wasting in the humidity of southern fla.

Welcome to the forum. I agree with you - Gretsch produces guitars with lots of great paint jobs, but, somehow, orange just seems to define the brand..

Welcome to one of the best forums on the net. Lots of great info and friendly folks. Super nice guitars. Beautiful state you live in. I drove through there some time back and I remember stopping for gas and the attendants filled up your tank for you at BP.

Yeah its illegal to pump your own gas here.


On a gear related note, i just came back from my techs with the 6120jr that I was sold as being in new enough shape
That it could be sold as new. Pfft.
As soon as I broke it out and got over how beautiful it looked at first glance, i noticed some issues that needed a closer look.
The headstock seems to be delaminating beneath the clearcoat and there is a neck seperation that i could fit a piece of paper
Into about 5mm.
So bummed out as I understand these are hard to come by anymore
