About 6 months ago I traded an all original mint condition 1972 gretsch country gentleman for a 2013 Taylor 816. I loved the taylor as it was so nice to play n look at but this weekend I was given the opportunity to swap the same guitar back. After a long n hard think I decided to do the trade and get back the gretsch.

It's a shame on one hand as I did really like the taylor 816 GS but I do have some other decent acoustics so it's not the end of the world n it's nice to have the gretsch back in our collection as it's so clean n original for a 44 year old guitars.

You wouldn't believe it's the same guitar, lol. It just shows how's a crap camera can spoil a picture.
