It's my 6122 from 2013 that I normally use on my YouTube videos, in short, my usual gretsch.
Wonderful!!! With the purchase of the Gibson L5, I use it a little less, but to have the voice of Chet it is unique, alongside the gibson nylon and the Del Vecchio.

Very nice! I know it sounds crazy but I would like to put another toggle switch on the upper bout like they used to have. It just seems like it is missing. Albert

hei Albert, the tone control?
From what I have read I seem to have understood, also based on what Paul Yandell said,
that Chet did not like this switch very much!!!!

Yes, I know. It is a mud switch. I have a Tennessean my Dad bought me in 1966 and I never used that switch either, but I just got used to seeing it on the guitar plus Chet had them on his for a long long time. He eventually took it out and plugged it. It is just an aesthetic thing for me, I know that sounds silly. Albert
