Gretsch G5260 Baritone | I finally have one

[@coda1786]

bro played a new loathe track and thought we wouldnt notice

[@ilijatomic4976]

Even his Loathe shirt is so discreet :D

[@thedutchdjentleman]

Outro track slaps so hard. Congrats on the new fiddle man!

[@jamish23]

I just recently bought this same one and I'm blown away! Build quality, like you said, is superb! The cleans are something else and I love how it "feels". I can really feel those low tunings going through the guitar and vibrating into me. I've not tried to set mine up yet but the action is still crazy high and I'd love to play leads on it more. Such an inspiring instrument that's got the classic vibes and style but just begs for really high octane playing.

[@JGSondaar]

could you make a video on how you get a tone like this? it sounds lovely and I'd love to know your thought process behind it all.

[@Neophetamine]

Ah, the sneaky rabea riff in there for taste :D Thats a instant Subscribe right there!

[@zaiaku3430]

I’m trying to remember which tune it was!

[@RaynP]

@@zaiaku3430it’s the Djent 2020 one 👀

[@zaiaku3430]

@@RaynP shweet, much thanks!

[@sncdmr4021]

Hi Ryan , I’d love to know what drill size did you use to get the 105 gauge through? Thank you ❤.

[@saylessstuff]

I have this guitar and to get a decent tone the signal chain gets really crazy. One vst that helps a lot to get definition on the low frequencies is Gullfoss live, I pair it with Saturn from Fabfilter. That goes into any neural DSP sim and sounds a lot better than the direct input. Great video!

[@electricmeatpuppet]

Try a microamp or EP booster with the Gretsch into Nameless... ;)

[@bolillo5013]

That low chug tease got me...

[@nassuel4522]

I'll for sure end up getting one of these eventually. Sound SO SO SO good

[@exiledtzar6773]

Beautiful sounds! What are the tune you playing at 12:12 ? Sounds so good 😢

[@TheGorillafoot]

I love how it looks

[@paulbradshawguitar]

great review, and agreed on a lot of those points, pickup height can help a bit (you can cut up a mouse pad to raise the height) and also use a screwdriver to raise the pole pieces i found there's quite a bit of sympathetic ringing (above the nut and below the bridge) but that's easy enough to deal with i settled for now on a drop F# setup with light strings that really helps for clarity i think too

[@eddybarker5072]

I also was looking for the Gretsch g5260 in Jade Metallic but settled on the Bristol Fog. To my surprise I loved the Bristol Fog ….a beauty. Thanks for the setup tips as I’m taking my low string to 100 also.

[@kev_meistr]

Finally got to see Loathe in person at Sick New World here in Vegas. 🔥 I’ve been addicted to this tone since. Very interested in hearing what new pickups would unlock for this guitar!

[@gabrielpeters929]

I’m getting one soon, so awesome to see your evaluation of it!!

[@coldnorthcreative]

oh that's so sick! Congrats! Song sounds dooope, love that chromatic part!

[@ilijatomic4976]

I bought 28" scale baritone and from the first moment i knew that it will be my all time type of guitars. This Gretsch is really grabbing my attention! Love the SLAMMING song man!!!

[@douchecraft3113]

the demo track is SO SICK. You fkin rock doggie

[@GearStuffandThings]

Loving your channel and the vibe!

[@pasyensyatv9092]

squeaky clean! gorgeous guitar

[@Raken531]

Love all the videos man. As a recent owner of a Gretsch Baritone, what action height do you recommend? When I first got mine it was super high but I lowered it recently and it suddenly sounded and played much better. Do you know of as sweet spot?

[@bagelel]

I’ve been frothing at the mouth to get this exact one, my 21st coming soon lmfao so here’s hoping 🙏

[@Kaleil]

Baritone and Bass VI are not interchangable terms. The Bass VI is a full octave below standard guitar range, just like any other bass. Baritones are traditionally tuned B to B.

[@WOTVE-CW]

The difference between a 30 inch baritone and a 30 inch bass 6 is just semantics. You can tune them the same.

[@awertyuiop8711]

That annoying bass frequency can be dialed down with a parametric EQ, no need to swap pickups.

[@Eternal_Motion1]

that intro note hard af lmao

[@AndrewP]

Hey there, great review! Tried one in a guitar store. Didn't like the neck profile and the body contour didn't sit right with me. Ended up getting he Squier cabronita baritone instead. Btw, what drumkit are you using for the song at the end?

[@jasonaaron1077]

I just bought one same color a month ago! Highly recommend it! I’ve played standard guitar for over 20 years. Bartone is the way to go love the low. Yes great quality. I got it from Sweetwater.

[@lattjeful]

Great video! Any chance you'll be planning on any more pickup videos? I'd love to see you maybe rewind the bridge in this baritone or something cool like that.

[@shredenvain7]

Love the guitar. Have you tried a boost to tighten up that super low C string? A precision drive or even a TS9 might do the trick or a 5 band eq.

[@liodwika]

Daaamnn Rayn Pickup x Gretsch already? We cooking around here damnnn

[@calebafile4306]

My friend has one and I tend to find sitting in like a classical guitar position is the best for it

[@johnconnearnmusic]

SO here for this

[@plumpdy5810]

Got the same one, it came set up in b standard though!! And I prefer that tuning tbh

[@mtus647]

Bro, for the pickups, DiMarzio just came out with new Filtertron style pickups (PAF and Super Distortion) and they could help you get a better tone Nice video, btw

[@LafBoi]

The pickups have been the most uninspiring part of this guitar, so I ordered some BKP p90’s to change it up. Need to find some wooden dowels to glue into the cavity so I can mount the pickups but should be fun

[@joellesueur5379]

Hey man, Great Video! Have you ever thought about putting an Evertune Bridge in one of those?

[@lucentguitars]

I recently found the jade grey in second hand and it's wonderful

[@hannahallerton685]

yay!!!

[@RaynP]

Thanks for picking it up for me while I was away hehe

[@whyharleyt]

Thank you Tim you the goat

[@zyphr161]

I beg you to tell us how did you make that clean tone

[@paulbladder2]

i bought this guitar last year and i love it but you're right about the low end. it gets so blurry that i've been having trouble getting a crispy articulate tone without the noise floor peeking through noticeably. whats your signal chain??

[@jamish23]

Question for anyone playing baritones for the first time - my fingers and hand are SORE! I've played bass before too and not had this hand fatigue. I wonder if it's just the action mixed with the tension. Would love thoughts

[@Anarch0s]

I have the same drill! it's a good drill.

[@AYAiYaiYaiYai]

A Quad Cortex rhythm preset for E/C#AEADF# would be nice. Also I've seen people retrofit these with a regular humbucker -sized Bare Knuckle Impulse on the bridge and it sounds gnarly.

[@KadeKalka]

love the Omori shirt!! 💖

[@floridawilldrown]

Bro has the exact loathe profile they use… I wish I could achieve that 😂

[@gennyrasulo4977]

Ryan pls if you rewound your pickups let us non how you did it and maybe make a pair of it that we could buy😭❤️

[@guillermodobler6031]

sounds great

[@scornthegreat7336]

God damn I want one too, they're so fucking cool. C'mon Gretsch, make a left hand model!

[@budverissimo1]

I have this guitar. Put will adler fishmans in it. Truly a great instrument

[@martinguerrero1659]

Playing twelve foot ninja 3:40 i see😏

[@ab8817]

from that original song seems like you could have just bought a 1 string bass and been fine

[@teleray23]

If you want to have real fun, get one with a Bigsby on it 😁.

[@thecoyote5000]

WANT WANT WANT

[@HollowEmptiness]

GET LOATHED

[@johnnyjacobsen5931]

Would be cool if they made this guitar for lefties!

[@Abbaddonna]

damn, you play some mean guitar!!!

[@Hyperlink1337]

not a fan of that style of music at all but based you're fronting an omori shirt with multiple zoom-ins. that's fuckin rock and roll man

[@mateocosta2840]

How much does it weigh?

[@atlen6137]

This is the best intro I've ever seen.

[@bocksmit9777]

Instrument made for french pop and dark type stuff... Complains about literally retro specs and shape. Love it

[@dudesteve6130]

I’d put a capo on it 😊

[@VladBornuz]

Noice.

[@alinack69]

Based

[@SoleilRobbie]

I thought Baritone was B-B

[@diazzsama]

buy 7s gauge strings. Tune it to E standard.

[@AndreNavacinsk]

Dude please let me do some vocal tracks on top of that absolute *BANGER* you just dropped on us like it’s not a big deal to compose something this good 😂 It’s free HMU if you’re interested. purely for the sake of making good music Please ? 🥲

[@AndreNavacinsk]

Also thank you for the content and keep those videos coming please, your videos are really fucking cool
