You’ll find the same experience with the G5260T. Duane Eddy, a man whose tone shouldīe listed in all good dictionaries under ‘twang’, used a Danelectro Longhorn 4623 liberally - most famously on 1959’s The Twang’s The Thang - and his signature tone was faithfully transposed to the longer 30-inch scale instrument. This is how baritones were originally intended. It’s a six-string, the geometry seems in proportion, familiar, and that neck profile, a shallow C, is never going to fool you in a blind taste test with a P-Bass, but it sure does feel like a different instrument like a bass. Picking up the G5260T, that’s the first thing that hits you. Hitherto their destructive potential would have been restricted to demarcation disputes with musicians’ unions are you a bassist or a guitarist? Well, using this you are kind of both. Plenty of info on the net.HARDWARE: Bigsby-licensed B50 Vibrato, anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge, chromeįINISH: Black, Airline Silver
Manufacture had been switched from Korea to China about 2003 and many guitarists say that the quality of these is actually better than the earlier Korean models. Elliot's contract with Gretsch had ceased in 2003/4 and the guitar continued to be manufactured but without the signature on the trussrod cover and scratchplate for another year or so. Metallic "cadillac green" with gold hardware and Bigsby trem.This model was made in 2004 when production had moved to China.
The last few went out the door with plain truss rod covers, removing any traces of Easton from the model.Gretsch G5570 Electromatic(Elliot Easton style)These unique special edition Gretsch Electromatic models have been discontinued for several years. In 2004 production moved to China for awhile, but when Elliot left Gretsch the 5570 was done. The only noticeable difference was a B70 Bigsby in place of the 1570's B700. Really don't want to sell it but as I mainly play a strat now this is not being played.In late 2003 Gretsch dropped the Synchromatic line, so the the 1570 Synchromatic Easton Jet became the 5570 Electromatic Easton Jet. Some light damage in the lacquer from my belt (to be expected from a heavily toured instrument) including hard case.
Really nice warm sound beautiful to play. This guitar has been on tour around europe and played at many festivals including the leeds festival. Bought for £1200 in 2005 elliot easton electromatic. Re-listed due to unforseen circumstances with the buyer.Open to reasonable offers and I will end the auction if I receive an acceptable offer before the end of the auction.
