Incoming...I’ve been waiting a long time!
I couldn’t be more thrilled today! I received this beauty after a long wait!
On the outside, she seems stock, on the inside, she has a special something that makes her unique!! Some stitching... Some buckling!? That’s not gold... is she fake? What a beauty!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The stock model wasn’t that hard to get, it took 4 weeks but I had a core inserted and the pickups rebuilt by a custom shop so it took an eternity to get those mods done... or it felt like an eternity!
It plays like a dream |

Lovely instrument! Their drums are also very impressive too (was kinda hoping it was a new ltd ed. snare drum).

That’s awesome, my dad had a Gretch, was from the 60’s a red/orange color scheme, loved the sound.

Some gorgeous instruments here.
Makes me want to post pics of my 1944 sterling silver King Silvertone 2-B trombone. Ooooh, there is some master craftsmanship with that one! |
