beep.click April 3rd, 2012, 09:49 PM To date, I've been lukewarm towards Jets. The handful I've encountered just haven't been amazing, the way some Gretsches can be. Playability only average; tones lackluster. Pretty, sometimes, but nothing that got under my skin.
So it really makes no sense that I became obsessed with this one:

And today, after a genuinely harrowing week trying to figure out whether or not FedEx lost the package, it finally landed. And it's great!
So color me converted. I can only assume that Tara's indefatigable proselytizing has a deep subliminal influence on all of us. No one is safe; consider yourselves warned!
dgshooter April 3rd, 2012, 09:51 PM That's a nice one. I hope a Jet with Dynas is in my future.
drmilktruck April 3rd, 2012, 09:53 PM If/when I buy another Gretsch, it'll be the CG Jet. Tara is right.
audept April 3rd, 2012, 09:53 PM Resistance is futile! Jets rule!

David Gurr April 4th, 2012, 12:59 AM Always have loved that color on a Jet! Congrats!

Oops, Penguin GAS! ;)

that's utterly gorgeous and importantly bet it sounds fab
Axis39 April 4th, 2012, 05:53 AM I am also a recent Jet convert. Though I had never even laid hands on one until my buddy handed me the one I bought. My Sparkle Jet is one of the finest instruments I've ever played.
Congrats! A Dyna equipped Jet will someday be in the stable for me as well!
ishtar April 4th, 2012, 07:27 AM Stunning! We're all supposed to have one of these.
freddyfingers April 4th, 2012, 07:28 AM Very nice.
cybermgk April 4th, 2012, 08:10 AM Congrats on your new Jettitude! :D
JaygLongBeach April 4th, 2012, 08:11 AM Beautiful Jet... I'm trying to control the Jet Gas and this does not help 8)
Chasbo April 4th, 2012, 05:09 PM Wow, that's a gorgeous piece of Jet there Beepster!
Hope it suppresses your gas for a while at least. And let's never underestimate the power of The Tara.
Here's to much enjoyment!!
texasdw April 4th, 2012, 05:20 PM Where is Tara anyway?
beep.click April 4th, 2012, 08:29 PM Probably off luring some unsuspecting guitarist into a life of jettocity.
ennisphd April 4th, 2012, 09:24 PM I played one just like this the other day and promised myself I'd one day own one in the same Caddy green. Congratulations!
