Hey folks,
I've a line on a fiesta red X-160 as part of a trade in deal (the other side of the deal involves a LPB '65 Jaguar, but let's not go there on this forum ... I'll take that to OSG!).
I'm pretty much in love with the X-160, which is really driving me towards the trade deal. To my ear it seems to out-Gretsch most dyna sonic Gretschs I've tried and the price on this one is actually pretty cheap (about half of what I'd pay for a 50s spec White Falcon for example).
So I guess I'm wondering what the catch is ... it plays and sounds pretty damn good, and that's about it!
Anyone on here have one or have any alternative view on these models. I can't really find fault with this one, apart from replaced tuners (someone put horrible locking tuners on it).
