    You're not wrong. It's a beauty. And even nicer in the, erm, wood!

    Here's the original advert for it in Chicago Music Exchange where I bought it:

    Cheers mate.
    Willing to wager it is the cheapest available worldwide.
    Absolutely beautiful and resonant to play.
    But still not sold....  :#

  • Do you have any pictures of the Jet in better light, preferably daylight? The ones on the Imgur gallery are pretty dark and shadowy, not sure it's showing off the top finish on the best way!

    Also, what is the neck chunkiness like?

    Thanks DGUYDJ. You're right about the pics. I'll take some better ones later today or tomorrow. But basically, if you look at a picture of a brand new one, that's what it's like. It's had less than an hour's play.

    Neck-wise, Gretsch describe it as a 'Standard U' - spec is here:

    https://www.gretschguitars.com/gear/build/solid-body/g6228-players-edition-jet-bt-with-v-stoptail/2413400839

    That might suggest a degree of chunkiness but it certainly doesn't feel over-chunky to me and I like a fairly slim to medium profile normally.

    Hope that helps - pics to follow.

    Cheers, look forward to the pics. 

    Is the official colour 'Dark Cherry Metallic'? I think you listed it as blackberry sparkle which I can't seem to find any official pics of!

    Ok, @Dontgiveupyourdayjob thanks for the prompt.

    Link to Imgur thread here - if someone could embed, that'd be fabulous.
