I don't know how it happened, but it seems that the pictures got flipped around.

Very nice! Even though I'm left handed, I'll never get use to left handed guitars. :)

Reeling in the years, Chet. You're taking me back to my 'yute' and the old factory in Williamsburg, Bklyn. One of my bandmates used to play a Tennessean....That'd be back in '65. Another still has his '59 DuoJet...high school then. It's a mindblower when you have in your hands a guitar which you played when new over 50 years ago.

Incredible-a much bigger collection of Gretsches than my collection of one.You are the envy of many no doubt.

I remember on first seeing Eddie Cochran performing and I couldn't understand how he winds up with a Gibson pickup on a Gretsch guitar, or how Duane Eddy got that low. We tuned our stuff down 'tilt the strings were like loose rubber bands trying find that sound.
There was so much we didn't know about stuff like that when first starting out back then.

I believe there are 3 or 4 pup variations. They all sound good to me.
