NGD! UPS dropped it off 20 mins ago!
my first real gretsch...!
obviously this isnt a pro line gretsch, or the "best" guitar i own, (gibsons, fenders, ect.) but it is by far my favorite looking, and sounding guitar out of my 17 guitar collection. i'll try to put up a video as soon as i can!
BTW, it was a 21st birthday present!
life is good for calvin lee!

Oh, how true. Smartest lyric ever, EVER written IMO, come from the song, "The Second Time Around."
The line that resonates (42 seconds in) is, "Love, like youth, is wasted on the young."
Happy 21! Savor it! Sounds like you're taking advantage of your age... some don't get around to Gretsches for quite a while.
