  • My dear friend who is an awesome guitar player and guitar tech Lucas La Spina give our thoughts on the Gretsch Nigel Hendroff Signature Penguin after playing the first two prototype models earlier this year thanks to Nigel letting us give some feedback on them! Needless to say, it is such a FANTASTIC guitar!

    Hey Jemmuel,
    Love your channel!
    I see Gretsch didn't go with the roller saddles on the bridge. Do you know if they fixed the tuning issues in some other way?
    Do you know what roller bridge he put on Nigel's guitars?

    Hey gents, is the “v2” you are playing a prototype? Did they address the tuning issue?

  • @Daniel-cq8jd
    @Daniel-cq8jd Месяц назад

    The “click” on the tone is the no load tone pot. When it indents, you’re bypassing the tone circuit completely. Volume is on the lower horn. Tone is by the arm.

    I'm wondering what Gretsch did in response to those tuning complaints. I see it still comes with the original Tune-O-Matic bridge. When you are already pricing it over $3000, why not go with the roller bridge and nylon washers to make everything right? During the playout at the end, I could hear the guitar on the left going out of tune again. I was seriously considering getting one myself, but after spending that much I would still have to spend more to replace the bridge and mod the bigsby myself. Has anyone with this guitar found it to have the same problems?
