Expected better quality build than this.

I have played guitar since childhood, decided to buy myself this guitar as i aproach seventy- years of age. The guitar was difficult to tune, lots of string buzz and dead spots. Lots of other problems, it looks and feels cheap-made. When i contacted THOMANN, they offered the full refund. But i decided to keep it anyway, and get a proper set-up.(new strings, nut and fret work, also the truss-rod was over tight.) The pickups sound lovely. the switches a bit scratchy, Grovers ok. The case(canada - made?) will not close properly due to faulty catches, and looks like something also made in china. Not the quality expected from Gretsch or Thomann. Problems aside, i kept it, and i like it,play it everyday.OK.

PERFECTION !!!
Bluegraskid 19.02.2025
It arrived in perfect condition, low action, perfect intonation all over the neck, it sounds truly incredible, I have many Gretsch guitars but this one is the best by far, I have an older model like this one but this one is better, sounds better and it has more attention to detail, the walnut side dots over the neck was a really nice touch, thanks Thomann !!!

Mega! George Harrisons "With the Beatles"-Klampfe! Mega! George Harrison's "With the Beatles" guitar!
Billy King 10.01.2018
Endlich klingt es so wie bei "She loves you" oder der ganzen "With the Beatles"-Scheibe (insbesondere auch der Introakkord von "All I?ve got to do") - ich liebe das Teil schon nach dem ersten 15-Minuten-Test. Die beiden TV Jones-Pickups machen genau den richtigen Sound. Diese Gitarre ist nicht gerade billig, aber dafür klanglich und optisch der OBERHAMMER! In Echt ist sie noch viel schöner als auf den Fotos. Die Mechanik der beiden Dämpfer hinter dem Stegpickup funktioniert einwandfrei und obwohl George sie nie nachweislich benutzt hat, müssen sie sein für mich als bekloppten Beatles-Fan. Gerade diese beiden Hebel machen den Unterschied zu den ganzen anderen Chet Atkins Country Gents. Und sie kommt super eingestellt von Thomann daher. Die Gitarre werde ich auch in modernen Produktionen einsetzen, weil sie etwas individueller klingt. Ich bin rundum begeistert. Fazit: sehr empfehlenswert.

Finally it sounds like "She loves you" or the whole "With the Beatles" record (especially the intro chord of "All I?ve got to do") - I love this song after the first 15 minutes. Test. The two TV Jones pickups make just the right sound. This guitar isn't exactly cheap, but it's the OBERHAMMER in terms of sound and appearance! In real life she is even more beautiful than in the photos. The mechanics of the two dampers behind the bridge pickup work perfectly and even though George never verifiably used them, they are a must for me as a crazy Beatles fan. It is precisely these two levers that make the difference to all the other Chet Atkins Country Gents. And it comes with great settings from Thomann. I will also use the guitar in modern productions because it sounds a little more individual. I am completely thrilled. Conclusion: highly recommended.

Huonoja komponentteja hyvässä kitarassa
Guitarman L 21.07.2024
Nelisen vuotta ostosta. Hienoa duunia. PAITSI. Mistähän roskiksesta potikat on haalittu. Alta vuoden soittoa ja rahina melkoista. Seuraava vaihe, että kun esim säätää volat täysille häviää ääni kokonaan. Onhan olemassa CRC tms, mutta mulla on muutama yli 20 v vanha halpis-Ibanez ja niiden potikat on edelleen kuin uudet. Pilataan hieno skitta tällaisella sekundakrääsällä.
