Nice Anny Jeff! How's the sustain? I can't get over the sustain of my newly acquired Country Club.

I don't think to many would be upset about a Gretsch lurking inside "Rickenbacker Guitars"! :grin:

Thanks, Aitch! Image Let's see that pic of your Gretsch again here, please.

Andrew, overall, the sustain is good; I need to put heavier string on it though, something I will get to sometime this week.

I seem to have lost the Gretsch pics during one of my 'system clean outs', Jeff...... I'll take some more.

Took it to band practice this weekend, BTW. Lots of 'oohs' and 'aahs'. Image

What is the bridge pickup? It looks like a cross between a HiLo'Tron and a Filter'Tron.
