Putting mine back up on CL after generously holding it for 2 weekd for one guy to get paid. He went off the radar completely so I'm shipping him a bowl of dicks, postage due.

That bass is fucking hot.

Tig, if I hadn't already expended my gear budget for the forseeable future I'd be hitting you up on that one, too.

So many Gretsches, so little time.

I'm glad FG III is alive to keep FMIC at bay.
Take Tacoma for example. Lovely guitars. Try to buy one.

There's no such thing as a new Tacoma. Fender shut down production to proceed with their own Fender and Guild instruments. Additionally, Fender doesn't own Gretsch.

That's what I'm sayin about Tacoma.

According to a 2003 agreement, Fred III retains ownership, but FMIC handles most development, distribution, and sales.

Right, but Tacoma was bought outright by Fender. It wasn't the same arrangement. This is also how Takamine gets by but Hamer didn't. Personally, I think that even if Fender did own Gretsch outright, they wouldn't kill it. Guild, Hamer, Tacoma, no problem. Gretsch? No way.

 

[BoomBoomBigelow]

I agree.

Gives one pause to think that Henry may be less Borg-like than FMIC.

I dunno. He's killed a buncha brands along the way too. It's just business.

Pass the gabagool.

 

[Virtual Pariah]

Can anybody here explain how to pin a bridge?
That one of the things that turn me off of Gretches. I guess if I learn it, I can bypass that problem.

Pinning a bridge: DON'T DO IT

I recommend that you make a mark; pen, pencil, tape,etc., once it's where it's supposed to be, then, if it moves, put it back.​
