excellent guitar for the price, I use one for rockabilly and blues numbers and early Beatles and middle of the road numbers never lets me down. The temlo arm is a useful feature as well with split coils on the pickups so you can get that thin sound as well as a fat warm sound.

The Swingster looks soooo good - And it sounds just as good. If you were considering this guitar along side others of similar specifications, look no further. I spent a lot of time researching the Swingster against similar Gretsch models, and came to the conclusion that the Swingster had more 'pros' versus 'cons' than equivalent Gretsch models - And the current price of the Swingster (May 2020), makes the choice a no brainer. Do yourself a favour and get this limited edition model whilst it's at a good price. By the way, Sunrise Orange looks great with the flamed maple....

The guitar bought from dv247 is a superb instrument, and the service was next to none. The price of the instrument was the best price I could find. I would just like to say thank you dv247 for a great buy.
