Sound is amazing, lovely clear cleans, and gets down and dirty, really heavy with no nasty feedback! Playability is outstanding, just have to be careful with the floating bridge; the strings hold it down, but can move with my ferocity :P

Ace. This might sound a bit odd and creepy but it's nice to see you've dressed up and are looking sharp while playing the Gretsch. They're such dressy guitars and can look dead out of place being played by some dowdy scruff. Just need it to rub off on the rest of your band and you'd have a great Walkmen thing going on.

it looks brilliant, where was the review you mentioned? Also, if looks like you are really fighting with it to get ever ounce of music out of it. The lighting makes it look like a cool surf green type of colour as well

The review's linked on our facebook page HERE

It's a flash site, so I can't copy the link of the exact page sorry, or at least I can't figure out how :P

Unfortunately, we don't have any really good recordings, there's a live set on our SOUNDCLOUD page thats a little hit n miss, but you get the idea haha. ( recorded with my Mustang, not the falcon)

It's Flock.....

Dude works at the local guitar center. Everyone calls him Flock becuase he looks like flock of seagulls. He is a weird guy but always takes care of me when I am in there.
They say great minds think alike....Sometimes we do too...

Incidentally, not sure how it happened but The Cult always played some fantastic guitars. That and the giant witches hat are the things they got right.
