I've Found MY Guitar

Kevin,

I certainly didn't mean any offense to those looking to buy (or currently owning) a SS White Falcon....and most certainly wasn't comparing it to a bad guitar like the Tom DeLonge Strat! I was just curious what the market was for the SS White Falcon.....if you don't mind, what are your reasons for your strong desire for the guitar? The fact that Stephen endorses it, or the features it has over the regular White Falcon (or both)?

Take care,

Joe (another 20-something poster!)

In the intrest of this post, I decided to share a few pictures of one of my "gems" with you all. For some reason all the pictures aren't showing up so here is the link to my site that you can go to. www.geocities.com/steelin1/picturepage5.html My White Falcon is either a 1959 or 1960, I'm not sure which. Maybe somebody could help me out determining the correct year of this guitar.

Dave, that's a beautiful Falcon, man. How does it play/sound?

That B6 Bigsby makes it a '59, I think. They seem to have gone to the V-cutout "Gretsch by Bigsby" style in '61 and '62.
