Silver Falcon
Wicked guitar. Totally Wizard!
Outstanding As Usual
The only reason I haven't written a review sooner is that I have been playing this Falcon so much since it (very quickly) arrived.
First and foremost, David provided incredible service from the start, as usual. I had my eye on this very specific Falcon model for some time--but it wasn't in stock. The morning I opened the in-stock notice email, I sent David a note (very early in the morning still) making a confirmation inquiry, and he not only sealed the deal despite the time, but also set the guitar aside while we were confirming everything, so that I didn't lose out.
The Gretsch Falcon itself is exactly what I wanted, and worth the wait. Classic Gretsch tone. Chime-y cleans but also has a surprising punch when driven. You won't have problems cutting through a mix at all here.
Everything arrived set up ready to roll after I made a minor pickup height adjustment (not a major one--a screw was just slightly loose on the bridge pickup upper corner is all). The thinner body here makes the playability much better (in my opinion--I understand the traditional big body Falcons are undeniably great too). Falcons are a high price point--and I understand that it is never easy purchasing a pricey guitar without putting it in hand first--but David and Sweetwater handled everything perfectly once again and I can vouch for taking the plunge here.
Love This Guitar!
The Silver Falcon is the best guitar I've played yet. Absolutely love the tone, clarity, and punch of it. And huge thanks to Sweetwater for sending it in ready to play condition!
I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT.
The Silver Falcon is my dream guitar, and it plays like one too. I was not only blown away by how well this beautiful instrument felt and played once I took it out of the case for the first time, but how gorgeous it was as well. Pictures do NOT do it any justice. Plus, as an added bonus, the Falcon has the amazing vanilla aroma that any hollowbody or semi-hollowbody owner has experienced.
The Falcon came out of the case with 10's on it, but I plan on having it set up with 11's since it still feels a tad bit slinky for my taste, but overall, it played and felt great out of the box. Huge shoutout to the Sweetwater Guitar Gallery!
Huge thank you to Matt McKible and the great staff at the Sweetwater Music Store for setting up the in-store pickup. I'll never buy a guitar from anywhere else.
