Love the Pickups, and the trem works great, I replaced the bridge with a roller type, and I am going to replace the nut, other than that it is a great guitar, (imho)

Hard to argue with the results. Are you happy with this guitar beyond the roller bridge?

I looked at this guitar before, one thing I thought that looked a little off was that the trem arm just came to the top of the bridge. How was the trem in usage, it looks to me that the handle should be several inches longer. It sure looks like a lot of guitar for the bucks, I was surprised that they mention Gretsch in their ad without the copyright symbol. Pretty risky for this day and age, Gretsch could get all over them for that . . . I like the natural finish, well the sun burst is nice as well.

The trem arm could be a bit longer. I think that will be an easy fix though.

I contacted GFS about the short arm. They really need to make it longer.

I think a Bigsby arm will bolt on.

a lot of people have been knocking the xaviere on these forums lately. i'm glad somebody posted some proof that they are great sounding guitars.
(i think it needs a wire bigsby arm, but i think that about every guitar)
:P

Calvin - actually the 9" Chet arm might be the trick!
