Picked up this amazing guitar instead of BS SSLvo version because I didn't want his name, or the dice nobs on a $3k guitar! This guitar is amazing. Plays wonderfully, sounds fantastic gretsch, excellent manufacturing. Features are 4.0 because it's tough to play high frets (just design). Value is 4.0 just because of overall price. Excellent craftsmanship easily rivals Gibsons in my collection.

The best sounding guitar I have played

I bought a Gretsch 6120-1959LTV in June and I'm absolutely blown away with the tone and playability of this guitar. I have always played Les Pauls, but when I got into Rockabilly I decided I needed a hollow body. The TV Jones Classic pickups are probably the best sounding pickups I have heard. The finish is awesome and the quality of the guitar is outstanding. I think that the neck is comfortable to play too.
