Very nice playing! What string brand and gauge do you use? I also have an Anni and play similar styles but can't find a string gauge, or maybe brand(?) that I feel comfortable.
Great tone, man! Is that an American made Gretsch or one of those made in the Far East? - Electromatic I think they are called - If that's an electromatic I'll surely buy one soon ... You gave me G.A.S., dude!
It's not an electromatic, it's a 6118. Made in the Japan Gretsch factory. It has filtertron pickups where as the 5120 electromatic models have Dearmond 2000 single coils. The electromatics are a fine instrument nonetheless.
Gotta love the Anniversary, what amp/effects did you use to get that tone? And are they the standard Filterton pickups? Wish my Gretsch sung like that!
Hi Deanosplemoni, Many Thanks! I just use a 70's Fender Princeton Reverb Amp straight with a little Reverb. The Gretsch is a 1960 but has Filtertrons from the 80's (new old stock)

sorry, should have read Stichfam post first. The 6118 model looks exactly the same.
