New to Gretsch
Hi folks. New to the forums
I recently purchased my first gretsch.
Brian Setzer has always been one of my favorite guitarists. So naturally, I liked the style of guitar he played.
The 5120 caught my eye a few years ago, but when I learned there were Setzer signature models, I had to have one.
After many months of saving and three months of waiting from the date of order, I am the proud owner of a Gretsch 6120 SSU Brian Setzer model.
Cheers,
Hawmania

Congratulations -- that's a heckuva first Gretsch! I have one, too, and it's amazing how versatile it is; works great on everything.

Welcome to another Gretsch lover in the Greater Toronto Area. I started my Gretsch addiction a few weeks ago.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I believe I will have many years of enjoyment playing this one.
I'll definitely be around here asking tech questions ie, amp recommendations. I don't feel my line 6 spider does this guitar any justice.
