An American instrument manufacturer well known for its wide range of instrument production, but mainly for its electric guitars.
Gretsch is known for staying true to its original cosmetic designs & updating its production instruments for the modern player, while still releasing models made to original specs for those who desire vintage sounds.
For example, the Country Gentleman can be bought with modern pickups & wiring while still keeping the look & feel of the original design, or as a vintage reissue with reproduction vintage parts.
Gretsch guitars have been favored mainly by country & rockabilly style players, but are extremely versatile, having also been played by countless other musicians & spanning a whole spectrum of genres.

gretsch 

A name brand of a producer of musical instruments, more widely know for their guitars and their respective sound. Musicians can easily distinguish between a Gretsch guitar and a lesser-quality instrument, and has been that way ever since the company was founded over 100 years ago by Friedrich Gretsch. Friedrich moved to America from Mannheim, Germany, where he set up shop in 1883 in Brooklyn, where the Gretsch sound was born.

While Gretsch guitars were selling well enough, the company's brand name gained recognition when George Harrison of the Beatleswas seen on TV playing his Country Gentleman.

The list of guitar greats who have played a Gretsch electric guitar is long and well, long. Many of which have teamed up with Gretsch to design their own models. Such as the Gretsch Billy-Bo model for example. This take on the classic Gretsch "Jupiter Thunderbird" was designed with the help of Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top and Bo Diddley. It looks like a vintage Gretsch guitar, but is new to the 2005 lineup.

some famous gretsch guitar players include but is not limited to:

George Harrison of the Beatles (country gentleman)
Malcom Young of AC/DC (rock-jet)
Randy Bachman of Bachman-Terner Overdrive
Steve Stills and Neil Young of the Monkees

Gretchum 

A derivation of greasy characterized by a disgustingly overwhelming amount of moxie towards even the most ordinary facets of life. Usually with an affinity for unorthodox hobbies including, but not limited to sword collecting, ant farm building, magic card trading, and beanie baby making. Hard to describe, yet easy to recognize, the gretchum kid will be the one who everyone wonders how he's still in public school. "What is that kid's deal?" or "What the hell is he doing?" are common question when eyeing a gretchum kid.

"Someone go tell that gretchum kid to stop eating the all the cheetos. He reeks like a past date jar of velvetta cheese thats been in a kiln filled with dead animal carcacuses for around 3 days."

"Bob Saget"

Gretchen Wieners 

Yes, Regina
No, Regina
Every waking hour
I spend making sure Regina
George can stay in power
If Regina is the sun
Then I'm a disco ball
'Cause I'm just as bright and fun
If you've had alcohol
I rip your secrets out of you
And bring them to my master
Then I watch Regina make your life a big disaster
Disaster!
Regina is the queen
But I'm the head of worker bees
I am seated at her right hand
Like a Jewish Princess Jesus

Tries to make "fetch" happen

That's Gretchen Wieners
She knows everything about everybody
That's why her hair is so big, it's full of secrets
