Gotta love both of those guitars!! Is that Chet one of the new ones made overseas, and if so, how is the build quality? |

Yep, the Gretsch was made in Japan. They made the 125th Anniversary model in the USA but the body is covered in gold leaf & they retail for $7,000. The build quality is excellenton on mine. It's the LTV model, apparently that stands for Limited TVJones. It's finished in polished lacquer rather than usethane & has TV Jones hand wound pups. It makes the "great Gretsch sound" just fine. At first I thought it was odd that it had gold hardware & polished aluminum Bigsby but that's how the '59 CA model was made. The banjo remover is a model 94 in .32 Secial. |

Location: Central Oregon | Thanks. The rifle is my nephew's Winchester Model 94 .32 Special. It's collateral at the moment. Most of my guns are in the safe, but I ran out of room about 7 guns ago. Gotta get another safe. |

"L" for lacquer, hadn't thought of that, you're very likely right Prof. The lacquer finish & TVJones pups are the two differences between the 1959 Chet & the 1959 Chet LTV. |
