The recipe is simple: take a stock-standard Gretsch (or any other brand), strip it, gut it and rebuild it with minimum, quality electronics, superior pickups and a light relic finish that looks as good as it feels. Joel and Colin at https://leadbetterguitarco.com have been doing this for a while now. I like them so much I've actually bought four of them! I may have to have this one too... Wonderful stuff.
