Thanks! I've now snookered myself into a corner where I just can't decide if the Danelectro or the Gretsch is the better choice for me? I like the looks of both and the price difference is fairly negligible so it's coming down to sound and playability and I can't try out either one...
Someone decide for me please :(
Nahguavkire-
I don't know if anyone has any experience of the Danelectros at that price point but I know I wasn't impressed by the pickups on my budget Gretsch - sounded very gritty to my ears, not anywhere near what I expect a Gretsch to sound like. May be something minimised by the deeper sound of a baritone, but it's the only advice I've got. Plus, Japanese rock guy.

No advice to offer but bigups on your choice. I've been umming and aahing for years about picking one of those up. Beautiful looking things.
