Members kittycaster Posted March 6, 2007 Members Share Posted March 6, 2007 Does anybody know what model Gretsch she plays? Looks like a stock Badass bridge and humbuckers... so I'm guessing a '70s Gretsch? I googled around and could not find any info. So beautiful! (and the guitar is not bad either!)

Members ScreamCage Posted March 7, 2007 Members Share Posted March 7, 2007 That looks like Sei's. He has Filtertrons in his, though. It's still worth waiting for him to walk in. Who's Polly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey thanks for replying... Polly is PJ Harvey. I'm a big fan of her and her music. I've never seen a Gretsch like hers and thought someone around here might know a thing or two about it.... so I can go find one!

Members Roy Brooks Posted March 7, 2007 Members Share Posted March 7, 2007 It is a Gretsch Broadcaster from the mid to possibly late seventies. It was from the same era as the Super Axe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool!! Thanks Roy. Bingo! I was able to find a catalog reprint but I had to spell it "Broadkaster". I need to learn more about Gretsch guitars in general me thinks.

I don't see any reason why not...Oh yeah, aside from the fact that it's 1. not a Wham! song, and 2. you know enough George Michael songs to be thinking about any of them. Do early Wham!, when they wanted to be Springsteen. It's cool, though. GM is fine...but we're doing one of these again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kittycaster Posted March 7, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2007 I was at that gig! Two+ hours of PJ with those funny purple domes in the background. Very cool night. Nice! I've seen her live twice... once opening for U2 (I only went to see Polly) and during Uh Huh Her tour in a small theatre. She's so awesome! I've never seen a Gretsch like that in person..... must find one like that.... the quest is on..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, completely original guitar in stock form. It is fairly heavy (and large) despite having a short 24.5" scale. I wonder how Polly, being petite, plays hers. Looks and sounds beautiful though........ I was very happy to find one thanks to a tip from someone on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
