Gretsch-Talk Forum forum

I purchased a broken, hard case for my Cold Kitten guitar. The Les Paul case was purchased from Temu. It stinks inside to high nostril discomfort, sort of like decaying meat. It is Glarry brand. I contact Glarry, they said their 180 day warranty is good only if you buy the case from the Glarry website. The warranty statement does not say that. Weaseling out of taking care of this problem. Beware, pay more get customer support. It’s a shame. If the case did not stink, then all would... Smelly Case for my Chilling Cat !

Anyone actually play one. I only heard one in person and it was good but everything else is just online. To me it is more reminiscent of a Taylor tone as I have generalized it although now they have Martin toned guitars. So confusing. I liked the way each model had its distinctive tonal finger print. Now it seems everyone wants to produce every type of fingerprint.

Hello all, I am in Canada and have been an avid fan of Gretsch. Looking forward to interacting with fellow Gretsch enthusiasts. Thank you

My D’Angelico was giving me a little grief on the fourth string when trying to intonate. The new strangs got that sorted out. Now, I want to put the Bigsby on there. I would like the one with the Chet Style wire handle. Vibramate will be needed. While adjusting some things on the D’Angelico ExcelDC XT, my tech noticed the stop tail was too low, letting the string hit the back side of the bridge top before they crossed the saddles. This guitar is a 2022 model I purchased from... A String Change Changes Thangs ?

Last week I had a sudden urge for a good old, classic, grilled cheese sandwich....the kind Mom used to make way back when. Not a celebrity cheffed up foo-foo grill cheese sandwich with fancy cheese and artisan bread swimming in loads of butter. Just a Plain Jane GCS. So while grocery shopping I grabbed a couple packages of Kraft Singles...both yellow and white...(wanted to see if there was any difference in taste) and a short loaf of Mrs Baird's plain white bread. These products are... Classic Grilled Cheese Sandwich

I just became a Gretch owner. Purchased a 5120 and am getting to know it. So far this forum has been quite a helpful resource. Cheers Ed

Matt Williamson just posted this interview with record store owner and archivist; Kenn Fox. Maybe a bit dry compared to lots of YouTube content these days, even other videos on Matt's channel where he is usually dishing a deep dive into a bands' history. In this one he is on location in Watertown Wisconsin, so it's a field recording. But it's worth watching for a few notes. One of them being the stores' connection to Paramount Records, a very old label. Also the fact that vinyl... Record Store Culture

Unbelievable! The collateral damage on the ground is unbelievable. A cargo MD-11, fueled for a trip to Hawaii crashed on takeoff from Louisville, KY. Lots of fuel to burn. This one looks like an uncontained engine failure, so it's unlikely to be a problem with the airframe. This type has either the GE CF6 or the P&W 4000 series engine, both of which are proven designs with long service histories, but even good engine types occasionally fail. United 232 was a good example, where a materials... Louisville Crash
