Wow..nice guitar...

and bring from Tennessee and from the same era, I can relate to all those people and bands

It is a beautiful thing and another reason for getting that model is because it Has Tennessee In it's name and they are the second model that Chet designed, the first model was the Orange one that Eddie Cochran Played with the "G" brand on the body and the Cactus and fence's and Steer Heads on it known as the G6120 DSW where my one is the G6119, 

 

I have always liked Rockabilly and country music along with 50s Rock"n"Roll, So it fits the bill and  the Sound :wub:  :wub:  :wub:

is something else, lol the First tune I played on it was Elvis's Mystery Train, and then Duane's Peter Gunn.

It's a beautiful guitar. The things you wait longest for are always the once you cherish most. Bit like those elusive nuggets...

Silly part about it I got choked up when I heard the first note I played on it and my hands were shakin,

 

I never thought I would ever see one let alone own one.

Sweet Gretsch, My brother has quit a guitar collection. About all I can do is strum a few chord's.
Too many interest my self. From Hot Rods, to shooting target Archery, and trying to find time to shoot some fly line. Cars take up a lot of $ and time.

 

But this prospecting is something I have always been drawn to. I find  it fascinating when learning about the old timers, etc.

 

My cousin that lived in Alaska and just recently passed away always told me. "Bear story's are like Gold story's up here. everyone has one."
