Throwing it back 2 years. This 1959 #Gretsch, on loan at the time from @tomgibson3783, started out life as a #SingleAnniversary in #SmokeGreen. Because of a dodgy fretboard that rendered the #guitar unplayable, Tom was able to acquire it inexpensively and upgrade it through the good people at @folkwaymusic with a new ("vanity"!) fretboard as well as a second pickup, and this fancy pinstriping. Such character in this instrument. Fun to photograph and play! . #gretschanniversary #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #gretschguitars #vintagegretsch #chetatkins #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #vintagegear #gretschguitarsofinstagram #guitarphotography (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CakmwVGJ3-E/?utm_medium=tumblr

Everytime naman na may nagtetext sakin na unknown number naiisip kong ikaw yun. But when nakikita ko na ibang iba yung format ng text and the way na pagtetex alam kong hnd na ikaw. But this time, though at first akala ko talaga is tita ko na binati ako ng "congratulation in advance sa graduation" hnd pala. And on your second text naisip ko na ikaw yun but i'm not sure. But then nafeel ko and nahalata ko din naman na ikaw yun. There's a time na hnd tlaga ako agad nagrereply. Gusto ko kasing maramdaman mo na wala kana lang sakin, na kahit hnd na replayan eh okay lng unlike before. But still most of the time, I found myself smiling habang katext ka. Hays. I wonder. Hmn. Nevermind. It's okay. Masaya pa din ako na nakatext kita :)

Here is the guitar I was talking about in my “story” earlier today - it it is a project #guitar I would love to have: @tomgibson3783’s 1959 #Gretsch #6125 #SingleAnniversary in that oh so sexy #smokegreen. Tom picked it up on the cheap because it was a bit mangled and in need of restoration. It had been poorly fitted with a replacement fretboard that had dot fret markers instead of the proper thumbnail inlays, and a @bigsby B3 instead of the correct B6 unit. Tom is having @guitarfixr of @folkwaymusic restore and hotrod it for him. Work will include routing for and installation of a second pickup in the bridge position, a single master volume, a tone control, a pickup selector, the proper #Bigsby B6, and the coolest thing possible, a custom-made ebony fretboard WITH HIS NAME INLAID into it! This thing is going to be killer when it’s done. Also, now that I have seen it I think I want a guitar that has #DeeBeeUs™ on the fretboard! 😀😆🤣 #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #vintageguitars #vintagegretsch #gretschguitars #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #vintagegear #gretschguitarsofinstagram #guitarphotography #weirdasswednesday
