Gretsch G1413 Jet Club

Here, it's pretty weird. I paid € 489 (chery sunburst color) but when I see the finish and color, I do not feel that it is the jet pro 1514. I am almost on the same (normally only available in the jet club suburst tobacco and Bolt). The jet pro, I saw him around $ 800 ... So either I made a big deal, it is a special version of the jet club in 1413.
Or, whatever, in any case the jet pro is not available in the list for advice.

Features:
- Excellent set neck
- HB 2
- 2 volumes, 2 tones. I find the path of the volume not so good: we move from "I have a medium level" to "I have at all levels" in a small degree! But I chipotte ... (Because of that I am not 10!)

UTILIZATION

As I said, the volume pots are medium and can not adjust the volume too low. Besides, I have a coil strat Simble and I used the whole race knob.
The handle is great. Access to acute is ... dison ... lespaulien not terrible. Personally, it bothers me too: I have not taken the scratch to play on the field 18 to 22.
The rest is as bonhneur: not too heavy but enough to feel like to hold something in their hands. The tone pots can really vary the sound.
The guitar is very natural to play, even for me who have small fingers.

SOUNDS

So here is incredible. This is due to the fact that I can be pro? I do not know and I do not care!
In clean sounds, it's all good: clean, accurate or soft and diffuse, depending on the setting of the pots. Well, it's not the crystal of my Start, but I would say that I find 90% of clear sounds I want.
In distorted sounds, I made the biggest slap in my life! We can not get 11/10? Well, if I put 10, prepare to drop 3 or 4 points and the Epiphone Les Paul style company (even € 600 ...). That fat if you like, it's big if you will, is aggressive if you want, it's hot if you want ...
AWESOME!

OVERALL OPINION

Here, I've had 6 hours ... But I had tried several times before buying. Meanwhile, I also tested other guitars (cort, epiphone, yamaha, gibson same ...) and I must say that for that price (489 €), I do not get any better. Even if the actual price may be higher (see above), I think it warrants.
Conclusion:
- If that is the right model, sell your guitar and buy the Jet running club!
- If there was an error on my model, still resell your scratch and you could buy the Jet Pro!
I love !!!!!!!!!!!

Submitted to the quick:
she appeared in order to compete with the Epiphone Les Paul trs covet.
So it's a Les Paul CHARACTERISTICS level bridge, neck,
available microphones but the table is flat!
Two Gretsch humbucker chrome, 22 boxes
lever to select micro 3 positions
Volume potentiometer 2 + 2 Tone ...
It costs 500

UTILIZATION

The neck finish is quite pais a good grip (that's subjective!) Trs and therefore enjoyable to the touch but the little devil is for fans of acute or Access in last res frets is not the most ease when compared to strato, or Ibanez!
on the other hand to disassemble the beast: dception we can see that the body is common wood (against aspect-ring plate!) And not massive (hence the price) and the cabling are not made properly!
the price must not ask too much either but it's worse than piphones (Level violin I mean)

Guitar a bit heavy I think this is not forcment dplaisant ...

SOUNDS

It affects a large number of scratch as it is versatile.

In the clear:
then the micro-round is a killer for those who love her anyway I like jazzy, it's a warm, round enough grows in low frequencies, and speaking of trs s Premire notes!
the sound of the pickup smooth enough but his strength is not (my opinion) its clear ...

With lgre disto: this position is impressive and trs singing and his fat and heavy while the trs is nice!
But the problems of feedback is a little annoying to find SETTING THE cohrents amp ...
I play with a Marshall VS8080 qq and pedals, then Vox Ad120VT.
The problem comes mostly from the violin to be heard clearly lez strap movement or a knock on the table ... trsdsagrable gesticulating when playing!

OVERALL OPINION

A year ago I was saying about me, "This is three years since I have and I'm not but then not at all the".
By taking a little bottle of experience, I realize that this guitar does not sound like a good guitar. Indeed, it is by trying MODELS standards such as SG classic, les paul studio, and strato tlcaster american deluxe that I realize the limitations of this gretsch.

For the price it's still okay but it is even below the level epiphone violin sound but it was quite friendly and spoke little except dtails deficits.

I'm trying to find its replaceable ...

notification:
I always possde and I just change the electronic is Fully renovated, with a Seymour Duncan SH4 (Jeff Beck) in bridge and neck pickup is the same. However, even with such changes means always accoups strap, and touch on the body, which is pnible and does not play high volume group for example. (Called the guitar pain in the ass!). But the SH4 revived the cot rock sounds of the beast and trs well.
This guitar is really enjoyable trs on the neck pickup or both pickups together or with a clear sound trslger crunch, to give a well rounded and deep in the bass. For over 10 years since I played and I rgulirement as sitting quietly and vogant trs soft on sentences.
