Members Treborklow Posted February 17, 2007 Members Share Posted February 17, 2007 I saw one of the four limited edition Gretsch Wild West guitars at Sam Ash today. It comes in a nifty window art box. Colorful art boxes seem to be the newest thing with cheap guitars. Anyway, they didn't have one to play but I can tell you it looked cool. I think I might have to get one just to hang on the wall as art. They look like the old colorful cowboy guitars of old. I undertand there are four designs and they sell for around $150 each. The looked to be about the size and similar quality as the Martin Felix The Cat model... which I guess is Martin's smaller travel size. In any case it looked like a fun guitar to sit and noodle on.

Members Fred Fartboski Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 I've been curious about these since they came out. Has anyone had a chance to actually play one yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Treborklow Posted April 18, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 18, 2007 I've been curious about these since they came out. Has anyone had a chance to actually play one yet? I finially got to try one at GC today. I was nice looking (graphic-wise), but cheap looking and feeling at the same time. It felt like a cheap Daisy Rock acoustic or something like that. Really cheapo tuners that probably don't keep good tuning. I didn't spend much time with it as the novelty wore off in seconds. Tone-wise, it sounded like the lowest quality small acoustic that you can find. I love the way these look, but it's a wall decoration first and an occasional player second.
