Great job on your Gretsch 5122! I own a 5120 and what I did was to upgrade it with TV Jones classic pickups, instead of the Gretsch humbucking pickups. If you can afford to do that purchase the pickups from TV Jones website and have a luthier do the work for you. Or if your experienced enough you could do it yourself. There's a video here on YouTube about replacing the pickups by Thomas Jones the master luthier himself. I highly recommend it!
@CluvVenny Hi......Thank you for your comment and recomendation. I´ve been visit the video about replacing pickups of 5122 by TV Jones pickups, it is very cool, but I don´t know about the price.... Good luck with your 5120.....
@professorspbr I think I spent around $350 to $400 for the pickups and labor by a friend of mine who happens to be a luthier. Feel free to check out my videos with my Gretsch 5120.
It's me again. That was beautiful. Please loan me your talent. I've got the equipment, I just need your talent. I know, practice, practice, practice. Again nice job, and please keep posting.
Amazing Playing! Great choice in music. I LOVE Bossa Nova. Gretschs are also my favorite guitars (It seems that we have much in common!). Do you have the chords to this song and "Wave" and "Samba do Avião"? If you do have them, could you please send them to me (I will give you my email if you can share the chords with me). Obrigado muito.
@steelguitar7 ..Olá......Agradeço seu comentário, fiquei inchado ...rsrsrsrs. Sim as Gretsch são tudo koreana, se não for logo se percebe pelo preço......Abraços.
@AmitBuium ...Hi....Thank you for your nice question. I have been conected my Gretsch guitar and the loop station output in the audio mixer, and the output in the video camera. The sound become more clear instead to use microfones.....
muito bom!! gostei! estou tentando decedir entre essa guitarra q voce tem, uma Fender Stratocaster, e um violao de cordas nylon... eu gosto de todos esses estilos!
@jondawg123 . Olá !! Obrigado por assistir o vídeo que postei. A Gretsch e a Fender Stratocaster tem estilos bem diferentes. A G5122 DC é mais para jazz, e a Fender é roqueira.......Também gosto das duas, até pensei em comprar uma. Vou dar uma dica. Essa guitarra eu mesmo importei.....localizei uma loja pela internet na California, e em 7 dias ela chegou na alfandega onde ficou 30 dias.... Mas no final valeu a pena, mesmo pagando os impostos. Pensei em fazer o mesmo coma a Fender....Boa Sorte
@professorspbr Pois é, parece que a Fender é mais para rock e essas coisas. Tambem acho que se eu comprasse uma Fender, nao ia ajudar minhas abilidades no violao e na guitarra, e é por isso q acho q vou comprar um violao de cordas nylon.. para me ajudar a ficar melhor em geral.
Valeu pela dica! Na verdade, vou visitar os EUA ano que vem entao vou poder comprar quando eu for pra la.
Oh, and your English is great! ;) I live about 8 and a half hours from Sao Paulo!
@jondawg123 - Opa !! belezura, ir ao USA e trazer a guita é o sonho dos guitarristas. Vai firme, lá tem várias lojas, com preços e modelos bem variados.......Puxa 8 horas de SP, é bem longe. Quando voltar, me avise o que comprou. Have a nice trip, and enjoy it.
I'm working on a trade between my Parker p-44 and on of these babies. I play guitar in the school jazz band and I've been looking for something that could pull of some smooth jazz...... Looks like if found it!
@darkduelist67 ...Hi !! Thank you for your comment...and to watch me. I like very much of "Bossa Nova" rhythm, it seems like jazz. I´m happy that you enjoy it and I hope that your play it in your school jazz band .....good luck
Hi , thank you for your comment, I think that this is the nice way to show and listen the sound of guitar. It is better than use effects or noise distortion.....Thanks
I am glad you have taken the time to post videos of your Gretsch 5122 DC played clean. I play rhythm guitar at my church and I wanted to hear how this guitar sounded clean with no effects at all. I really like the looks and the sound of that guitar and I'm now planning on buying one myself as soon as I can.
If that guitar sounds that good through a Vox Pathfinder, I can hardly wait to hear how it sounds through my Fender SuperchampXD with reverb!
Hi, thank you for your comment . I think that you will like to play the Gretsch G5122 DC specially in your church. This guitar is very light , beautiful design and great sound.....I would like to hear the sound in your Fender SuperchampXD......it´s amazing. ....
