I don't know if the Epiphone Scroll was mentioned, but that's a cool guitar you don't see around much.

Yea, that's killer :drool:


the Baldwin-era (i.e. 1970s) solidbody Gretsches are much unloved by Gretsch enthusiasts who tend to see them as even more aberrant than they actually are and don't like the fact that they had humbuckers rather than more typical Gretsch PUs, but as a weirdo among enthusiasts i find them interesting. what i'd really like is to get a Gretsch Committee from that same time period. dig the transparent grey pickguard!

These used to be really awesome pawn shop guitars too. Last time i saw a committee it was like $1700. I was flabbergasted.

Gretsch TK300

But now someone's bought it. I like the design, but I hate the clear finish. That red one was siiiick, though.
