Members voneville Posted August 4, 2006 Members Share Posted August 4, 2006 I've been staying away from this place and not reading Vintage Guitar magazine, but I almost cracked anyway! I played my friends Gretsch Electromatic last night at band practice. That thing is cool. It sounded great and played like a dream. It easily played as well as my friends late 90's 6120. I keep spending money on harley parts for a project I'm workin on, but i see one of these in my future. I prefer the gretschs pickups and fret acces to the Ibanez, but I still think the Ibanez is a better bang for buck guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Blackbelt1 Posted August 5, 2006 Members Share Posted August 5, 2006 I love my Electromatic. Each week when I play out, about halfway through my set I pull out the Gretsch and the "oohs" and "aahs" can be heard all over the room. The 5120 (orange model with 2 humbuckers) can be had new for around $575 now!~Blackbelt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
