Piggy-backing on radd's post in the Elecromatic forum, I just picked up my 3rd Gretsch in a little over 6 weeks ( I think I have a problem ) a 2004 6121 59 Nashville. One of my local shops has turned into used Gretsch heaven, they have at least 3 more models hanging on the wall still, after me snagging this one.
Oh crap! There are two vintage orange roundups, without leather trim, in my area and I almost bought one instead of that 5622 but they cost 3x’s as much. Your guitar is beautiful, congrats 3 Gretsch’s in 6 weeks you say.....2 Gretsch’s and one Epi Gold Top Les Paul in the last 4 weeks for me. I guess I will meet you in a guitar addiction therapy group soon...
It’s listed as solid body, but it actually, like most Gretch solid bodies, is chambered, which helps a lot with weight.
