Members docjeffrey Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 I want one of these! TV Jones Powertrons. Lacquer finish. Figured maple top. $2199. I believe that these are made at the Terada plant. I have three Terada guitars and they are every bit as good as Gibson production line instruments for about the same price.

Members GAS Man Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 I can see why that would get your mojo fired up. I have this classic version But that version does indeed strike me as being more comely. The only thing though is that I find these guitars to be a bit anemic. But nothing a slightly over-driven Vox wouldn't transform into classic tonez. But again, point of your post, the TV Jones Powertrons would also cure my one lament about the duo jet design.

Members BlackCat Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 I've had a yen for a proline Gretsch for years but they're really out of my price range too. This year I'm moving into a temporary sublet out in Jersey at 1/4 of the rent I've been paying in Manhattan. I think I may have a brief window of opportunity to afford a really nice guitar. Duo Jet with Dynas and Bigsby is on my short list of candidates. Ah... maybe some day. If I hit the lottery. Until then this will be my Jet with almost-Dyna's: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Malcolm Ramone Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 Ah... maybe some day. If I hit the lottery. Until then this will be my Jet with almost-Dyna's: That flame top is sweet, but I have one of these Jr Jets w/the DeArmonds too, and it's a great lil twanger! -Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MyNameIsMok... Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 If only they did not cost as much as a 60's Gretsch...I would go vintage first (been in the market for about 13 years looking for "the one" ,myself). I figure as soon as I pony up for a Proline or Sig, a perfect old one will come to me and I'll be screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Hubert Stumblin Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 Very nice. My dream guitar is either a nice Nashville 6120 or White Falcon. I think I might be more partial to Dynasonics as well. That Billy Zoom Duo is pretty amazing sounding, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ravelleman Posted January 26, 2011 Members Share Posted January 26, 2011 Looks a bit like the New Jet from way back when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
