I know one guy who ones a gretsch it’s a few years old. I don’t really know what model but I can say it’s a pretty nice guitar. Wish I had more for ya.

I recently got a gretsch Malcolm Young signature model off of craigslist. I have played this guitar a lot in the past two months, I really like it. I got a gig as a rhythm guitarist a month ago and this guitar is working out nicely for me. The only thing I don't like is the zero fret, mine developed a burr which caused a d string to break at the nut. I polished the burr out and it's been working fine. I did change the pickup out to the TV Jones classic, basically the same output but a little more growl. The bass player in the band I'm in owns a white falcon and loves it, I played it and it feels great. Phil
