His Horn Went Beep Beep Beep

Someone at Fred Gretsch's must have been a big fan of the American Motors Rambler back in the '50s. Their enthusiasm for the compact automobile had to have been the inspiration for the Gretsch 6115 Rambler. The little 3/4 scale Rambler's Lotus Ivory top was similiar to some Rambler auto's paint scheme and the guitar even sported a red truss rod cover which was reminiscent of the Rambler car's taillight. This thing sounds sweet and has a really nice action-very playable, even to guitarists used to the standard guitar scale.
Here's my oldest modeling my '60 Rambler.

Thanks, Woody! I've got TWO left-handers that I'm hoping will learn right-hand guitar. She's about three in this pic, is now almost seven. Her little sis is almost four and they already want to start a band! Here's Kelli watching "Wild Guitar" with Daddy's '57 Strat.
