  • that neck needs some adjusting...

  • Lay off of the cocaine

  • Canadians FTW

  • how much was it???

  • Sweet axe dude

  • Well he seems like a bit of a something that rhymes with hunt

  • What if he opened it and the case was empty or had some other guitar in there?

  • I just got the gretsch too. Really nice. Have you posted about makin music?

  • Nice guitar ;D the walrus eye camera pisses me off though kinda lol

  • "oh happy happy happy f-" *click*

  • Anthony Bourdain plays guitar?

  • Is that a REAL Airline? Like, not a crap Eastwood?

  • NO NEED for the effing and blinding, Great guitar, but there will be kids watch this video and your language is childish!!

  • @gal00li If you dont like it dont watch it. simple, man...

  • @gal00li there are PLENTY of other Gretsch videos. get over it

  • @sm0kinstrat

    who rattled your cage?...you people make me laugh ...you wouldn't swear if your mum was in the room ...you guys are hypocrites...I am just defending the non use of gratuitous swearing...I'd expect it in a comedy club or an action movie....not somebody talking about their new guitar!

  • I know the feeling! I felt the same way the day my Gretsch was delivered to me!

  • que basura de video .. este puto se la pasa hablando puras pendejadas .. y ni la toca . .es mas bien unn culto al hecho de que le alcanzo para comprarla ..

  • I just got me a black g5120, Electromatic...I'm in love again, and I've fired all my ladies.

  • Your a legend!

    

  • lock-in tuning systems suck

  • *Instantly reminded of the epicness that is 'A Poet's Life' by Tim Armstrong*

    Momo, you lucky guy haha.

  • I have played every guitar imaginable and this is my opinion. Grestch have a twangy, grungy, lo-fi dull sound!!! I owned one for years and it does not compare with a Gibson Les Paul. They are OK for a novelty but the sound is too country!!! Those who like them are just kidding themselves. I am happy for this guy and I hope he loves his beautiful-looking guitar, but really they are just not my cup of tea!!!

  • I love my Power jet 2 !!! it has a floating bridge not fixed which you know by now...

  • where the fuck is Alan?

  • What a Dick.

  • @155 who was that girl in the background running?

  • That's what I was saying before, I was singing it..... happy happy happy, smile smile smile. I left the F word out though. :P

  • i love how excited he is haha

  • ur fish eye effect is warping the neck. hehe

  • 3:05 Is that an Airline or just an Eastwood ?

  • сцуко, так и не сыграл ничего. Только пиздел больше...

  • "Oh happy, happy, happy fuckin' day." imao

  • Nice house design, great guitar.

  • everything looks cooler through a fish a lense!!

  • why the hell would anybody dislike this?!!

  • If you're gonna buy a Gretsch, you buy a hollow body. If you're crazy, and want a solid body Gretsch, then you buy a Corvette! You NEVER buy a Jet.

  • @ChickenVendetta Then I guess he was in luck because the Duo Jets and Power Jets aren't solid body guitars. Are you thinking of the Pro Jets?

  • @w3bt3k Ah! That must be it. Thanks for straightening it out.

  • @ChickenVendetta It is confusing because Gretsch says the Duo Jet is in their Professional line, while the Pro Jet is not in the Professional line. (A Power Jet is a Duo Jet with TV Jones Powertron pickups.)

    Ironically, the night after I posted that first comment to you, I noticed one major online store say that the Duo Jet is solid body. It isn't. It is a chambered semi-hollowbody.

  • 1:56 gotcha haha

  • oh happy..happy..fuckin day

  • I really wish my 5120 had a locking bridge.

    It's a pain in the ass to reset it every time I change strings.

  • "DO IT"...."DO IT" Starsky and Hutch....Maury

  • I just so happen to ironically have one sitting right next too me : ) looks a lot like that one cept mines old and broken haha

  • I'm getting a gretsch g5120 next Monday! Aaaaaaaaaaaa can't wait oh and nice duo man love it! But next time no fishy eye K!

  • So what specific model is this? Beautiful guitar.

  • Isn't it great when you get a guitar-sized parcel in the post?!?

    Love it.

  • I think only Martin and Gibson have been around longer than Gretsch. Still, you've got one very sweet guitar there, and you can cop some mean blues and rockabilly licks with that axe! Enjoy the newest addition to your musical arsenal!

  • @6672rock sorry sir, but only martin, gibson was 1902. martin 1833.

  • adrian...i love you adrian!!!

  • i love this guy haha

  • man, u'd better start acting in porno movies with this outfit :)

  • Space monkey needs to honor the instrument and tone down the language.

  • i want this dude to be my guitar tech. he looks so cool in his own way

  • all in this video is shit, except the BEAUTIFUL GRETSCH!

  • dude the guitar would look better without the fish eye

  • @Kevinazo17 conversating isn't a word buster! cunthead! lol

  • Nice video. I bought the same guitar and got all giddy like a retarded schoolboy the first time I played it. You've got a nice little collection there. How do you like the Eastwood Airline? I notice you have the 3P version which I've been dying to try out.

  • ...less dialogue, more action, respectfully...

  • @sonzoomspark1 It's Actually monologue..Since technically he is the only one speaking and not conversating directly with another person. Just saying.

  • Up and atom!

    Up and at them.

  • alan!

  • Stupid fish eye lens is stupid.

  • OK....

    No reason to use vulgar language when describing the elation experienced when the Gretsch arrived, period! For you that think I'm a prude, nothing is further from the truth. When appropriate, (out fishin with friends, for example) I can emit a string of words that would make Ted Nugent cringe. Momo should be ashamed not for useing the "word", he should be ashamed for lacking the maturity to use it when it is APPROPRIATE! Get it viceboy? Pussyman?...Yup, crave it with a passion, Thanks

  • @bleuzmaster shut the fuck up, faggot

  • what model is that, momozone? it looks like a mod 50's chrome hotrod. and kicks like a farm animal. great choice of color. right out of the box? did you have to set it up?

  • That is probably the nicest guitar I have ever seen, it's just the look it's slick, sexy and cool I am so jealous. I#m working on that by the way.

  • dead serious. Why do you ask?

  • you is a lucky bastard . Nothing quite like getting a new toy

  • Bono , the lead singer of U2 , has those Gretsch guitars.

  • Bono has only one guitar - Gretsch Irisch Falcon

  • Oh man now that has put me off getting one

  • woulda been worth hearing if you didnt have to use the F word. happy happy happy F'n day. Try n save the word for emphasis on meaningfull phrases. you should be ashamed of yourself. learn to cuss like a sailor not a teenager. Didnt have to damn God for it either dumbass

  • @bleuzmaster agreed!!!!!!!!!

  • @bleuzmaster are you serious?

  • @bleuzmaster Should he be ashamed because he's said fuck!!? You mean that grown-up people can't swear!? Lol! You're a fucking pussy man!

  • george harrison would be proud

  • um i think the neck is bent =P

  • fisheye

  • it was a joke =)

  • it was a joke

  • George had 2 duo jets - one w/ Dynos (shown on cover of Cloud 9), the other with Filters (not really shown that much). I am pretty sure he didn't have the power jet.

  • too much talking, what a waste of time

  • @monicaorange i fell asleep 3 minutes in and then went to another video.

  • Comment removed

  • George Harrison of the Beatles had the power jet . So this is why it's valuble because it's a remolded version of his .

  • he had a duo jet, is that the same thing?

  • I'm not sure . He did have a 5120 .

  • @EricDylanColumbine99 he had the duo jet.

  • I'm fuckin drunk right now, i hope i'll be getting a gretged soon

  • Fuck man, i'm gonna get famous and if you guys are reading this i'll give you a shout on the David Letterman Show.

  • I'm getting one soon,

    Which one do you guys prefer,

    one of these ones or the big bodied ones with the lines holes above and below the pickups?

  • Gretsch's are the Shit!

  • omg i want one O.o how much does one cost?

  • 1:56 random smiling person.

  • I like to look at this video cuz' u're so happy that one gets like a contact high ^^

  • fucking beatuful man, so lucky

    looks crazy though with fish eye lens haha

  • what the hell is that thing? a jet duo or something? Happy Beatles sound dude.

  • I take it from you comment that you have never played one of these guitars? They are extremely versatile. i played one at a local store and within 5 mins I bought it. Don't knock something till you try it

  • I didn't knock the Gretch company. I like the Gretch company and their products. But I will be honest with you--I've never actually pulled one off the dealers wall and tried it. And another thing---of all the guitars I would like to have, that Gretch is my number one choice right now. Is that fair?

  • this is tghe gretsch i wanted appaerently its hollow so they sound is different

  • Why are you using a fisheye?

  • fuck you benjamino22

  • this gut is the reason im still alive. fuck you draggonboy

  • even the case is gorgeous

  • HAPPY HAPPY FUCKIN DAY LOL

  • nice cam lense. or is this a video effect?

    why haven't you played it

  • Funny when he opens the package and looks at the little piece of the package and just throws it away :P

    Anyways, that's an awesome guitar!! my friend has one too, though its golden but still very very very cool!

  • bitchin! maybe not use a wide lens next time tho.

  • That is a fucking nice guitar man

  • What a great guitar...MOMO YOU DESERVE IT!!!

  • all gretschs now are made by fender, and I think they are pretty much cheapened.

  • I got the Gretsch brochure....and no body in the house touches it..

    :D

  • Nice. I've got a 6120 that was made right before the Fender buyout. It's a shame that they're made in Japan now. They should be legally obligated to take the adjective "great" out of their tagline.

  • Rich guy doing an unboxing? Why is this interesting?

  • because when he's done, he has helpful advice. Dont gotta be a dick

  • Hermosa guitarra

  • you are a spoken man

    play plese!!!!!!!!!!111

  • *Whistle* That's not a guitar, that's the f-ing Excalibur!!

  • Wicked Guitar. My brother's got a Les Paul and Fender Strat, and I have a Fender Strat, but that Gretsch looks awesome!

  • I've got a Gretsch Pro Jet with a Bigsby, wish it had locking tuners and T.V. Jones pickups, but it's a beautiful sounding guitar, nothing wrong it is great! Ever consider bass also?

  • You should have kept her. Then, You've had (IMHO) the best of all worlds: the solid Gibson, the chambered Gretsch PowerJet and one of the hollow body Gretsches. Along with your Fenders, what do you want more? A PRS perhaps... ;-)

  • hey i might get this guitar, do u think its worth the price

  • youll struggle to find something better

  • OMG! i got a gibby and i will never part with it but know i need this power jet gretsch awesome dude congrats

  • nice guitar!

    i got the rickenbacker 325c63 liverpool yesterday!

  • Hey, congrats. I remember when I got my Gretsch a few years back, it was one of the happiest moments of my life. It looks so 50's rockabilly.

  • Not a Gretsch owner myself, I play Gibson V's, but you may be able to get a replacement bridge that locks down to take care of the bridge flying off when you change strings. I know they make them for Gibson's as we have the same problem... It sucks, you bump that little wheel and you end up messing with your action when you should be playing.

  • try tone pros

  • You're stoked man, congrats... I love watching grown men open up toys.

  • Hey Momo, just curious, the bridge is fixed on your model - but when I go to the Gretsch site, the Power Jet has a rosewood floating bridge on both the Bigsby and non-bigsby model. Do you custom order yours - asking for a fixed bridge?

    Also, what guage strings do you have on there now? I'd love to hear a clip of of that guitar with anything all tube. Would you please post one? Thanks.

  • hey Ive got a 2008 gretsch power jet & its got a FIXED bridge. lovely guitar all around

  • I have that same guitar. it's Like a Cliff Gallup model.

  • Mate id be that happy if i got one as well, i know the feeling when you get it, and its better then you have imagined it.

  • Ha ha! So you got a banana shaped guitar - very good! Why are you such a wank? Is it because you're american? (A rhetorical question - answer is implied.)

  • His profile says he's from Canada stupid.

    Try your American bashing somewhere else.

  • OPEN IT!!!!

  • ok so i am getting a gretsch 5120, no case. how do they ship it w/o the case

  • Beautiful mystical guitar!...wishing you blessings, and major happiness with such a wonderful, Magical guitar! Much love,

    Gypsies muse

  • at 1:15 it looks really warped haha ( i know it's the camera)

  • i have gretsch 6120W..is very very very cool guitar ,..

    dude,you EASTWOOD AIRLINE guitar $??

  • i m in love with gretsch guitars like a guy chasing that girl he cant have.. i love them all

    i look at the falcons every time i pass the guitar shop.

    all the same, i m playing 3months, i think i ll buy this guitar.. i have an epiphone that i like but dont love..we played this 3 weeks ago in the shop.. i almost stole it iwanted it so bad haha

  • lucky fuck!!!:)

  • the neck is bent, dude!

  • Oh my God.....you bought a guitar without playing it first? Isn't that a bit risky? What if you got it out of the box and it didn't like you or what if when they made it they forgot to put a soul in it?

  • hey tony9l9l thats a good question.W hen your a guitar whore like me you get to know the vibe of a magic instrument just through a picture and all the people i deal with know that if i dont like it its going right back to sender and im getting another one till im happy.If you want to be a tramp like me,develop relationships with great places and cool people and away you go.Peace out Momo

  • Aaaah! The old 'returns policy'- I never thought of that! I know what you mean about knowing the vibe, I once bought a Fender acoustic that was hanging on a wall 60 feet away! Took me just under twenty years to wear it out.

    Oh by the way , I forgot to say how pretty your beautiful Gretsch is.

    Lots of love from England

    Tony

  • @tony9L9L

    Oh, you don't need to do much playing time before you get a Gretsch.

    You just know... Gretsch = Gold.

    No matter the style or model... They're just that good.

  • happy fucking day

  • COOL... хочу собі таку

  • Woaw!

  • wow. where are you from?

  • Wierd. Is that nail polish dude ?

  • the guitar looks weird at 3:01

  • its the camera

  • Is this the Gretsch G5235T ?

  • i got one of these when i bought my ec 1000 vb. Needless to say, i was surprised that that thing will be used as often in my studio as the ltd.

  • I was looking at one of these for a couple months, than when I went to buy it, that day someone bought it before me. That's my luck I guess.

  • are you wearing black nail polish?/?

    haha

  • ....play that unhappy guitar please

  • how muct it cost,reply A.S.A.P

  • it cost 2000 to 2500 dollars.

    in that range

  • You don't understand, I'm looking for something between $1 and $400

    D: OSHIT

  • $3025.

  • lol, im a acdc fan, it fits to acdc, malcom , :P Gretsch + Gibson = AC/DC

  • I'll have to get the electromatic ones. Ain't no way I could ever afford one of these.

  • This man, for some reason? is head over heels in love with himself and I just wasted 5minutes and 54 seconds of my life

  • Hahaha...yep...

  • are those dyasonic pickups?

  • oh dude im so exited im getting a gretsch broadcaster bass it will b awsome

  • I just started to play guitar 3 weeks ago, shit this guitar is just awsssommmeee!! What styles is it suited to??

  • gretschs are versatile...dont listen to the guys below. A guitar is basically just a paintbrush, so it depends on the player BUT famously gretsch guitars tend to fall more into the hands of rockabilly guys,rock n roll guys, some punks, blues, and so on...bo diddley, cliff gallup, billy gibbons, malcolm young...tons of people.its notable that gretsch guitars arent anything like the big gibson sound, but do have a good OOmph for distortion if thats what youre planning

  • I like the fish eye lens for camera, goes with the image. That guitar sounds loud without an amp which is good. They say if you pluck the b string and can feel it vibrate the tail of the body you got one worth checking out. There is no other take besides the first because you will just repeat yourself.... Good luck with your record!

  • happy happy happy FN day, I will have that day tomorrow, when I get my Gretsch, Yahooooo

  • At like 1:16 I thought the guitar was REALLLY screwed until I realised its just the camera lense. Great guitar, I really want a white penguin, and a white falcon but solidbodies are more my thing.

  • He didnt even play the damn thing. I mean really play it, jacked into an amp and and really throwing down on it. I can hear someone talk every day of the week but what I wanted was to hear what that Gretsch sounded like. what a waist.

  • I think you've nailed that feeling when a new guitar arrives!

  • the isn't very right ! ^^

  • This is great, he looks like bono and talks like tony montana.

  • looks like bono? hmm looks more like elton john

  • this is great i love youre guitars especially the yellow airline guitar! is it airline or westwood! anyways cool video!

  • stop talking and play
