Oh, I wasn't saying that the guitar doesn't sound good - it's more that I'm used to hearing Gibson arch tops, both on records and live, which have a completely different tone than Gretsch suitars. I've also had the pleasure of recording a few Strombergs - It's rare that I would say this, but THERE's a guitar worth $40,000.
I've got a deal in the works to buy a 1968 Gibson Super 400 CESN and an early 70's Johnny Smith sunburst. I hope that works out.
