I agree the Rev model is the best that Gretsch makes. I've had 6120 reissues, Duo-Jets, special editions, and even some '50s vintage Gretsch. The 6120RHH has the most versatility, the broadest range of tone, and is easiest to play at gig volumes. The neck is excellent and the whole rig just works. I do recommend a the Tru-Arc bridge. Killer axe.

Same here mate I bought my 1st ever Gretsch last month, I stumbled upon a lovely 5126 silver sparkle in virtually mint condition and now I'm obsessed with Gretsch guitars. They look better than anything else, and mine sounds great with de Armond pickups, and I find it so comfortable to play.....I've hardly put it down in a month. The only crappy thing about it so far is re-stringing the bloody Bigsby.
