It's been a while since I've posted here. I've been busy with a few projects and this is one that I'm quite proud of.
A few of you may remember I mentioned last year helping a friend design his signature model Gretsch.
Well, after 2 years of work with Steve Wariner, his son Ryan and Gretsch guitars this project is ready to be released.
The Steve Wariner - Nashville Gentleman
There are some firsts here for Gretsch in electronics and construction, design. Steve wanted something that would not only fit his needs but be very versatile for others. That was our task and I think we achieved that goal.
Here's a video I also helped write and produce with Steve playing and discussing the model and our choices.
Hope you enjoy and thanks letting me share this here with my friends.
Cheers,
Jeff

Thanks everyone!
So fun to be a small part of guitar history.
If anyone is going to NAMM this weekend Steve and I will be at the Gretsch booth at 1:30 on Saturday.
Stop by, say hello and lay down some Surf on this cool guitar.
Cheers,
Jeff

Ten thumbs up on that one Jeff.

I go through Gretsch phases. Had I been in the middle of one I woulda just ordered one of these.
Cool guitar! Steve is an awesome guy.
