   They are nice.  Worked with a couple guitarists that played   
   them.   
      
   They're humbucker style pickups a la the Gibsons etc. iirc.   
   NIce guitars.   
      
   SB> Anyone else ever get to play a Gretsch Falcon? Opinions of it?    
      
   Guitarists I've worked with who played them never complained about them having   
   a problem staying in tune.   
      
   I don't usually play electrics much, as my technique is way   
   too sloppy for electric.  Electric bass I'm alright, but if   
   I sit in with somebody on a guitar or even on my own stuff   
   for recording for keeps I let somebody else do the electric   
   guitar work .   
      
   Regards,   
              Richard
