Cooper, I'm always in awe of your skills with any guitar; and Chris's to a lesser degree ;D. I have a thought for guitar demos in the future. Have someone new to guitar demo what they know how to do. Strum, or arpeggio, a few chords so newbies know what they're in for as far as the sound they will hear. Maybe limit that type of demo to sub-Pro-sumer instruments. There's nothing worse than hearing Cooper demo, then dropping $2k on a guitar, only to hate one's utter lack of talent and experience because someone can't nail Stairway to Heaven or Freebird after practicing for a whole hour. LOL
Love: the headstock, the vibe, the size; the brand as a whole; Cooper's low-key enthusiasm. Unsure about: the soundhole shape; how it sounds Not a fan of: the laminate construction; slathering the whole thing in opaque finish. Always useful if you can mention where these guitars are made.
I’ve got a black one, and I really like it! Haven’t plugged it in yet, but definitely plan to. As for its acoustic sound, I’d say it’s OK. Clearly it doesn’t sound as good as my Martin or Gibson acoustics, but it’s not supposed to. I think compared to other parlor size guitars it’s great! I got it to mainly play around the house, but if it sounds good plugged in, I see myself playing it live. It’s definitely a cool looking guitar, and everyone loves the headstock. Oh, I also like that it has a built in tuner. Anyway, good review!
That’s some amazing playing! Holy moly
Cooper, we need weekly episodes of fretboard confessional. Love the podcast and the reviews you and Chris do. Great work!
I like that microphone! I like the way that guitar looks. I want one.
Yeah let's see you match the shell pink one! Maybe unplugged and plugged? Thanks Cooper.
Wow, excellent demo and playing!!!
It's great looking but rather large. Great presentation.
Thanks for sharing your review! I ordered one after you video. :) I need to drop by your store next time I am in SA Town.

I’ve been playing on ‘n off for 18 years and I won’t even attempt the “Freebird” solo. lol
I'll be taking one of these. Nice demo.

Please do a Gretsch Rancher or Gretsch Historic 3700 review, "vs Guild or Gibson jumbos" please! Wahi' Valleys
really nice review. great job.
That looks fun
Cool look.
I've got a Jim Dandy that I play the fck out of. I've wanted one of these since the first time I saw them. That mint metallic looks delicious.

How’s the action? Thanks
@@jessicamoore1314
The action is great! No complaints at all, as far as playability.
You should get together with Billy Strings.
Very nice playing there my friend.
What’re ya playin’ ? sounds cool af
Any idea of a hardshell case for this guitar?
Sounds great Cooper, though I think your playing could make almost any guitar sound great.
Fender has the distribution for Gretsch... While a cool looking guitar Cooper is showing. I would not be in favor of it. A GREAT beginner's guitar.
The headstock is beautiful : ) not keen on the bridge
Nice. What case fits it?
All the acoustic purits have to leave this site.
Not sure how you don't watch this one.
I have.
It looks better than it sounds, but it's what it is.
No it doesn't.
You can make a pile of junk sound good. Man you can play!
Lefthanded guitarplayers are discriminated again I guess!
why play so fast? no need..
Look, I know she’s ugly! But she’s got a great personality! The story of my life.
She's gorgeous
No thanks..... but at least it got the Cooper revving.
Great little guitar, AWFUL color
