Nice! Is that the line with the Super Hilotrons? I've heard good things about those.

It is! They do sound good! A couple days after I bought this for $499 I saw they marked it down to $449. I sent them an email and they gave me 50 bucks back!
Help!I'maRock!

Spruce. It's a big upgrade from Chromyte.

@PunkKitty posted a link to a sale on Adorama in the "Black Friday" thread.
Looks like the deal is still on: https://slickdeals.net/f/13657667-gretsch-g5622t-electromatic-center-block-double-cutaway-electric-guitar-with-bigsby-449-free-s-h
They have it in Georgia Green (mine), Black, and Orange.
If you're interested in a Gretsch I recommend it. I had to file the nut slots down just a bit as it was a tiny bit too high, but other than that I'm hard pressed to find a flaw. This compares favorably with the Japanese Gretsches I've had. If I had to spot a difference I'd say this one is a bit heavier, but that might be due to the center block (my MIJ Gretsches were hollow). Still, it feels "beefier" somehow. Great strap balance and very comfortable. The pickups get mixed reviews but they sound like pure Gretsch to me. For $449 shipped it's a no-brainer if you're looking for something along these lines.
