Gretsch

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.

Notable guitarists:
George Harrison- 6128 Duo Jet, 6122 Country Gentleman, 6119 Tennessean
John Lennon- 6120 Double Cutaway
Brian Setzer- 6120 Nashville, 6120 Hot Rod, 6136 Black Phoenix
Duane Eddy- 6120 Nashville
Stephen Stills- 6136 White Falcon
Chet Atkins- His entire signature line

My favorite Gretsch guitar is the Duo Jet in Cadillac Green.

gritchie

gri-chee. Noun. American South. c. 1980.

The subtle, reluctant, yet revealing smile that forms prematurely on the face of a deadpan joke-teller who moves too quickly from set-up to punchline.

Nathan tried to look serious, but his wide-toothed gritchie made it obvious he was about to drop a bad pun.

Gretchen

If u know her u know her she is always smiling and laughing. She is bold and brave and won’t back down easily. She is loving and caring and cares a lot about her friends and will defend them with all of her heart. also she can put up one hell of an arm wrestle.

If you have a Gretchen in ur life keep her.
