I can’t believe they put HS filtertrons in an Electromatic. Congratulations on this beautiful signature guitar!

Once I saw Nigel get his, I knew you were next !! I'm glad to see you have your own signature model bro! God bless you !

Amen! Blessings Chris! Keep it up man! 🙏🏻🙌, love your guitar tone!

Do you think they could work on an acoustic electric guitar with nice pickups and something well balanced that sounds good on a big stage or in a small church

Muchas felicidades Bro, que Dios te abre más puertas!

it's got my attention and definitely tempted.... but it no big feat just to half-copy a design that's been around 70 years. if i wanted to nitpick, i say if they are going to make a cheap version a the 6136, why just tease us with the color, gold sparkle binding, and hardware... and I wish they would have gone with the arrow G or cadillac G tailpiece (which I guess you could just buy). then, since it's a thinline and nowhere near the depth of the original, legendary 6136's from '54 til '59, i'd much prefer if they'd have gone with the thinline double cut 6136 model from '62 .........and if i really had a choice (which i don't) the appearance of the 1967 6136's configuration with stereo was what blew me away as a kid when i first saw one... that incredible row of switches (and knobs) that starts on one side of the lower bout then goes all the way around the treble side lower AND upper bouts, plus the added two mute lift knobs, and that crazy telescoping trem arm... makes it look like something from NASA in the 1960's.... but somehow still doen't look tacky.... oh well, now i think the half-way-there tease of this is just pissing me off ..... "give 'em inch and they'll take a mile"

It’s a ministry and an industry, due to the fact that it generates money so it’s considered an industry while at the same considered a ministry

@@Neffcguitarist oh

He plays guitar for one of the biggest artist in the spanish worship music "genre". He also travels around the world to play, who also has 112k subscribers as of now on youtube. Clearly Gretsch saw his value and wanted to bring him on, there is no reason to hate, and the guitar is beautiful, if the hardware tarnishes, try and treat the guitar better and just replace the hardware when needed, it really isnt that big of a deal.

Plus if you actually research him not only does he play for the biggest band in Spanish music, he’s helped produce almost every single major artist in the Christian Spanish music genre he’s very well known in the Christian community as an amazing artist,guitarist, and producer, he was even been invited to namm multiple times. He has worked so hard for this moment and I’m very happy I’ve lived to see this moment👍🏼🔥🔥🎸

@peterhughes8699 hey are you the Gretsch Gatekeeper, you haven't been doing your job because this wasn't the first Christian artist. MIchael Guy Chislett and Nigel Hendroff have one too, and maybe more. Are you religious, because if you're not then I guess you don't believe in "evil vibes". Oh I see, you're just superstitious. Well they also signed a female artist. Mr. Hughes please contact Gretsch with your valued advice because they really need your help. Jesus loves you!

@@David_Perez06 I don't hate the guy but "worship music" is a very obscure genre followed by a small number of christian zealots. And good thing that is too cos Christianity is evil. And why buy a guitar that you have to replace all the hardware every 10 years. I sold the last gold hardware guitar I owned

@@lcglazer ok not the 1st huh. So Gretsch have other evil christians in their cupboard. Jesus doesn't love me or you. Suggest you read the Bible. The fictional Jesus and Yahweh only love some of their chosen people group (the Jews) and only those Jews who slavishly obey all their 612 rules and regulations stated in the Bible
