I still hanker after a Gretsch White Falcon. Certainly influenced by Neil Young, one of my favourite guitar players. I'm not sure why, because I don't know what I'd play on it. This multi-decade itch persists. I can relate to this! I scratched that itch and got one a couple of years ago and I still don't really know what to do with it. At the moment, it's mainly a background feature in my YouTube videos lol.

I had two years on his ArtistWorks channel too and echo everything Del said. One of my favourite musicians of all time. He's got such good taste.

I got my Gretsch White Falcon from Bax, and what an ordeal that turned out to be. They sent the wrong model, which I returned. And then they sent me the exact same guitar again. Then it turned out the one I'd ordered wasn't going to be available for six months. Shocking service.

I've experimented with a few different pickups and the Anthem is the most hassle-free rig I've ever had. I have the full-fat version rather than the SL and it goes into a Baggs Venue DI. The DI does need power so it is a bit more of a faff. If you really cba carrying a DI, the Baggs Para-acoustic DI is a no brainer. It runs off a 9v battery and is very small and fits in a gig bag pocket. I would use that but I've lent mine out on what appears to be permanent loan.

Superb. It sounds like a baritone. Are you tuned low?

Glad to hear it! I'll definitely go in and check one out the next time I'm in Glasgow and have some time.

I watched that Taylor video and have since been watching the GT videos that the YouTube algorithm is offering me. It sounds like a really nice guitar. Shame I didn't see this before I had a whole day to kill in Glasgow or I'd have gone in and tried one.
What are your thoughts now after having had it for a bit longer?

I have some Dave Evans tracks on a compilation called Irish Reels, Jigs, Airs and Hornpipes. I think it was El McMeen that recommended him to me, being a fellow CGDGAD player.
