    Manufacturing indonsienne said the label. "Made of real wood", the funny words on the cardboard. But it's true that I thought a toy / trinket luxury of seeing in the store. As I was looking for a guitar for my 11 year old son, I talked to the guy in the store, I just explained the concept, I tried it I just ... crack as well (I really do not need another guitar'une home).

    I MODEL Green "Way out west" .. I like the COD "the Martians attack the cowboys" (a remember the game "Redneck Rampage" and it's pretty DCAL to not do too much "cowboy trip"). And then saw his derrire DGRAD it looks like a Granny Smith apple.

Nothing in the reasonable.

    I MODEL Green "Way out west" .. I like the COD "the Martians attack the cowboys" (a remember the game "Redneck Rampage" and it's pretty DCAL to not do too much "cowboy trip"). And then saw his derrire DGRAD it looks like a Granny Smith apple.
    Level one is in the form of vintage and that's good. It really is "mimi" the ptite.

    Well as said in the notice of solo84, marketing Grestch works. I love the brand (as happy owners of a US Tennesean of 1965) and I just cracked on the look and ct "collector". I keep the box with the same pub / 50 BD's kind can "learn to play 15 minutes a day" with the end of an order saying "if you really believe everything you're told, e-ch than one million dollars Gretsch. " It is clearly not to take the srieux.
    Level of quality stringed instruments, it is cheap but adequate. Well there are sagging on the binding is not the great violin. I have a doubt about the Longva COD. Too bad.

    APRS 2.5 years EDIT: It is still the it has not moved at COD or wood or anything ... against it by a lot visit the world with me. This summer she will be in Canada the US APRS anne dernire. Not to mention the stuff on the street improviss Paris. In short, we did not forcment mnage. And there are still people who see it with me (she's more in between) and I would like the sting.

    UTILIZATION

    Solo84 same remarks. The handle is not what is the best (especially when we only REFERENCE is a takamine) but still enjoyable and it's not too bad rgl of factory.

    Access in acute, non so ben ... is unplayable from the 13th box :-). Since this is a 3 / 4 and more, it was soon a problem of congestion of the fingers.

    SOUNDS

    Well OK we have a 3 / 4 159 euros, no need to have esprer the sound of a Martin. Needless esprer have serious deep with a. Level personality she does not actually missing.
    Defines exactly to the sound, I can not find the words but I will try to talk about feelings. Apart from the lack of low-empty, even when it was a good balance. It can not be said of toujorus folks under 300 euros today (whether at Fender, Ibanez or Taka for the brands that I know).
    It seems lgrement Dobro sound (I wonder if it's not a lightweight "twang that borders" that a default would also .. but I like as a ) shuffled a little box like instrument banjo.
    It's not as trs prcis description, the better so try it.

    The game is picking rev limit (too bad I would have thought the opposite, I enjoy picking on the small guitars general). By "strumming mediator is much better if not buggers.
    In open-tuning the bottleneck, it gives her a nice but beware the precision of the support of the bottleneck on the strings (should be just that I can put other strings).

    EDIT: Finally I'm torn on picking, it's not so rotten that ds has adapted his game and that shade for the determination of crack (which can be a positive end).
    I love this scratching it so it's a ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have the whole weekend over jou. My girlfriend too. It was almost fight over the new bb house.
    Its small size makes it a nice travel guitar unless damaging to a COD. To see. Anyway I'm going to the lug everywhere. At least no one will make me shit to take hand luggage on planes.
    And then, me pretty little guitar design, and it has inspired me the its greatest quality.

    Some will pay "ukulele" from Dionysus (or the "New Star 2007"), the story of his having a little fun. Before a, try this little guitar. I still have to test the microphone recording to see if his personality can not serve me in my arrangements.

    The pros: the concept of "collector" / SERIES limit low cost, the vintage look / DCAL (shape, color, COD), the personal sound, the playability of the size The legendary brand on the cheap, the ct "addictive" in the bb. It is not that n'achte guiare like another guitar. It can be a favorite irrational. This notice must be understood in this sense.

    EDIT: a fact that I did not prvu: the effect of "wow what's that scratching?" on each person who comes to me. Yet it is laying right outside my "real" Gretsch on the stand ...

    The -: the thing that tells you "you're a guitarist consumriste, achte me even if you do not need another guitar" .. not good for the ego, the limitation of a 3 / 4 in Contents serious, violin making 150 euros. I'm sure for beginners, you can find more srieux in this price. I think it's mainly a guitar for Gretsch aficionados and people who crack on anything that can be DCAL .. I am both (I bought a dj Squier "Hello Kitty" my girlfriend, I'm more favorite dbile prs :-))

    A Yes, finally I keep it for me. Beginners for my son, a classic 50 euros will do. No, but ... if I had a little more money, I collected the four. Either to hang on the wall, both for agreements diffrent each. The problem is that the first two models are out dj.

    I put 9 because in Contents of favorite, I'm not.
    9 and not 10 because I am unable to know if there is better value in 3 / 4 folk. In any case I do not know as more fun design.

    PS: I am not a fan of country & western.

    2.5 years APRS EDIT: I'm still a fan of this little guitar. And as she dominates the Premire pice with me, before each rp we pass between zikos and some of our songs were born on it, a night of drinking. This guitar still has a standard power of sympathy, including the level of noise.

    Okay, come on, I cracked on her looks and I bought it! Gretsch marketing works very well!

    Unpacking, no surprises, just the idea of ​​it! She is very pretty!

    Wood ("real wood", they say!) Is identified, the satin is properly applied, the finish is ok, no real faults. Polishing the frets is the bare minimum, the attachment strap is plastic and the keys. But hey, we can not say we were not warned!

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is correct and no more. This is not a highway, but there is no obvious fault.
    Access to acute: drop (see photo)
    form: we have everything under control because it is small and light

    SOUNDS

    There is good: it …

    SOUNDS

    There is good: it has a sound to it, especially with many highs and present a character! That's all I asked, and thus fulfilled the contract!

    OVERALL OPINION

    A small guitar that has its own charm to it, and look to it for cheap!

    Hi everyone!
    Well then ptite gretsch is made Indonsie
    It has 18 frets
    The neck is thin enough and it slips easily and fluidity above. He stops at 12th fret.
    The guitar in it even the vintage look is even on the handle that is old and dirty on the ropes voluntarily xD but it's pretty trs, just grossirement ends but it is a very polished s sweet. She is thin and fragile trrrssss least that's what jtrouve .. The indoor is a little, uh, dirty, and finally ends quickly, a little mdiocre, but at the same time we do not care ^ ^

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is trrrrs enjoyable, all the people who are in their arms were Player Characters a desire to learn the guitar!

    CHAC is impossi…

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is trrrrs enjoyable, all the people who are in their arms were Player Characters a desire to learn the guitar!

    CHAC is impossible to acute From the 13th unless we have the fingers of ET!

    The form is trs good, I love this form in addition is a 3 / 4 so the size is nice to carry around, which is obvious it was his weight when you take it we are surprised it is trslgre same too, was thinking that it is quite fragile, which is true dailleurs ^ ^

    Okay now the sound, it sounds pretty amazing and trs cool country blues, you wonder how this small scratches out a sound like a, UNFORTUNATELY, I distinguish several default APRS 4 months of acquisition :
    Wood-back as trs end tends to encounter something that is a timber which causes the indoor sound tufts and sometimes ugly trs on the strings of MI and LA was frankly sometimes Gnant .. damage
    Curl-some notes and it's not beautiful! it looks like a zither, and it has this annoying problem j'espre rmedier soon.
    PROBLEM-MAJOR! it is often dsaccorde trooop galre really gives you the play you a little above and ay is it left for the link .. misreux!

    SOUNDS

    It is perfect for my style of music, folk, blues and country, it has a guitar made for any fawn.

    This is a guitar made for the basic chords and the pentatonic! ^ ^
    She has a great sound despite the default deficits above, it's a really hot I love blues and it seems to see the United States when it plays ^ ^

    OVERALL OPINION

    a must 4 months I heavy use (4 hours minimum per day scratching)

    The particularity of course and it is practically only jlai choose: his look, she's really nice you spend with no inaperu ^ ^ and then it's small, beautiful varnish, people like it ^ ^

    I did not try xD I saw it in real life and in love jsuis, jlai Internet Ordering ft sailing.

    THE price quality ratio? jlai pays 150 if c'tait jlaurais I put a 100 becaufe it is not perfect enough to be a gretsch 150th yes it is a good but the quality is not great, it's a little cheap for connoisseurs . but hey it's a limited edition!
    nan I do not like that term but I was told it's a bit against heart: a toy.
    Indeed it is not a guitar pro for what.

    I would do if the choice was silent 70 nan srieusement because she has too much and I would do the default choice if they emerged in the enhanced version, less cheap ..
