PSA: Gretsch G5622T $499 free ship/no tax Green Orange Black

Just saw the cyber Monday email in my in box. Bought mine on Black Friday and it hasn't even shipped yet. So I called and got them to adjust with a store credit. I probably would have preferred a refund and might have gotten one if I argued the point, but this is the 5th guitar I've bought from them and I have a couple of others I'm looking to buy, so the credit will be fine. Heck - the original price was fine for that matter.

 

Dropped into a GC today and they had the G5622T on the wall - so I took it for a spin. Loved it! Can't wait for mine to arrive. While I was there I looked at a few Les Paul's that I thought I wanted next. Wow - those things are HEAVY!! They are officially off my "I Want" list now. Just too heavy for me.

 

This Orange one is really cookin’ on me, but i’m not in the US...
Lucky you, guys.
I guess it’s better for my wallet, though.

 

This seems tricky. And we would have the import taxes anyway. Maybe still a good deal but oh well.
I have enough guitars, but these Adorama offers are great, real big discounts.

 

I saw them yesterday. Great prices, basically new for the price of used.

 

And now we know...



Just dropped off by UPS - a full 5 days ahead of schedule!



She's a keeper! My routine 15 minute inspection found ZERO flaws in the fit and finish - looks to be perfect! Ran it though the Hot Rod Deluxe GB Edition and it sure sounded sweet. Tried all of the controls and switches - no issues! Very well boxed from the factory and double boxed by Adorama. It's a great deal on a beautiful guitar!

Called Monday and got store credit of $50 for the Cyber Monday price lowering. I'll use it to pick up a gig bag or case. Not a huge fan of the hard cases, so I'll probably go with a high quality gig bag.

 

That's awesome!!! Still $449 and now more tempting knowing for sure they are Korean.

 

GREAT looking Gretsch you got there, the color is really nice!

 

I spend WAY too much time on color choices, but I think I got this one right... although the orange one was in the running for quite a bit. The black one - nah, not so much. Wouldn't kick it out of bed, but prefer the green. Which I neglected to confirm is Georgia Green.
