I’m in no position to get another guitar but I do like the look of this one. Ticks many boxes for me, pickups, bigsby, semi hollow.

I love the look of all Gretsch guitars. There is just something about them.

Me too but I've come to the conclusion that those big bodied guitars are impractical and uncomfortable for a couch player like me. I love my HB-35 but rarely play it - and the position of the jack on the edge of the body as opposed to the front doesn't help.
Just been noodling on my Mustang shaped - MS-60 and it still impresses me how comfortable and fun it is to play.

I just like the fact you know from the look it's a Gretsch whatever model. Whether it's the hardware or what I don't know. I like the sound of twangy Gretsch's I think it's filtron pups and TV Jones pups. I'm probabaly wrong! The pro jet I tried was stunning but had just standard type humbuckers I believe. Which was a shame because I would have loved to have bought it.
