Gretsch 6122-1959 Review as a jazz guitar ButchBolesGuitar 7,757 views I do believe that Gretsch guitars are overlooked by a lot of jazz guitar players. I enjoy this guitar a lot, and if I had to keep only one to make a living with (of the gu...

About this user

Began playing guitar in 1975. Joined the Air Force Band in 1980 and got out of the service to go to engineering school. I joined the Washington State Air National Guard band and retired in 2002. I have also freelanced as a musician. I am trained as a jazz musician, but due to the Air Force band experience, I am more of a "jack of all trades, master of none." But, I'll take it as we are the sum of all of our influences. I am currently focusing on solo guitar. April, 2010
