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,
