Howdy all! Long time no post. Still happily picking just bad at being active on forums!

Here is something I am working on. It’s a total different feel than my usual stuff. This Gretsch that I received from Mickey in trade has broadened my spectrum, for sure!

Gosh Mickey thanks! You’re a good picker too! That one just didn’t meld with ya! I happen to be quite pleased and content with it. Truly a wonderful instrument. How have you been? 000 still making sounds?

I also found a love in flat wound 11’s for this instrument.

Thanks! I have some ideas for different places to take that. But that’s about the rough shape of the song in my head haha

Thanks for the kind words but that guitar refused to sound good in my hands.
However that little Martin 000 you traded me likes me! :)

That’s great!

This Gretsch has really gotten me out of my box so to say
