Members fuzzylogic220 Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hey got the gretsch Ive been wanting for sometime now. I'm officially done buying gear until like October or something. i love it, plays so great better than i thought it would action is smooth. pickups seem to be somewhere in between a single and a hum. they like almost match my LP.

Members Gochaz Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 That's a 6122 Special isn't it? Damn, that's nice. I think those things sticking out are mutes. Never used one, but I hear they're entertaining if not actually useful. I've always wanted one of those things. How does it cope overdriven, or do you play it only clean?

Members Blackbelt1 Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 Those are string mutes, something Chet Atkins had added to the line back in the 50's. Each one mutes the 3 strings on its respective side. Congrats!~Blackbelt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
