I'm really digging the walnut color. If you squint, it looks like George Harrison's Tennessean. Sort of.
The pickups are astounding. They make an incredible difference over the stock 'Gretschbuckers.'
A closer shot. I now know why the TV Jones pickups are so highly regarded. In fact, Gretsch puts them in the up-market 6120 variants. That's the highest praise, I think.
The beautiful titanium Compton bridge.
The guitar sounds fantastic plugged in. It also doesn't sound too bad acoustically either, especially for a guitar with a laminate top with a bunch of holes in it!
Now I'll get back to the Hickok troubleshooting.
