Blue Pearl Sparkles in sight & Sound

By Swanny

from Northern California

Comments about Gretsch Guitars G6129TL Sparkle Jet Electric Guitar with Bigsby:

Upon arrival, this gorgeous and unique looking guitar was breath taking as soon as I opened the case. It was perfectly in tune and the intonation was dead on. I found literally zero flaws in the finish, fret ends were smooth as silk and the guitar itself wasn't as heavy as I anticipated. I play both Country and Blues with a focus more on Blues. Plugging in and letting the clean sound for a mellow blues ballad was really creamy with a deep mid-range tone that fit both Blues and jazz chords perfectly. This guitar can also really crank and distort, giving me a huge variation of tones and a plethora of clear but crunchy meaty sound when I cranked up my Fender FM212DSP amp. Outside at a fair, it was easily heard in the back rows, but not shrieking in the front. Fast neck, fast looks and dazzling neck speed makes for a perfect Blues hammer. I've also had an unbelievably number of comments on the Blue Pearl Sparkle finish. The guitarists that looked at it almost drooled. I love it and will have it with me until the day I breathe my last breath. Nobody gets my Gretsch.
