Gretsch honors Malcolm Young
Dave W:
Gretsch USA Custom Shop Malcolm Young Salute Jet
$10K MSRP, with heavy relic aging.
Basvarken:
I'm guessing this is old news? Cause under "the beast unleashed" I see they "placed it in Malcolm's hands and the cannons of rock erupted"
I could make all kinds of quasi funny remarks. But we best not go there...
Cool guitar, but I doubt there's any serious market for this.
Highlander:
Not going to make a joke about this... all I feel is sadness...

It says they started on it in 2008. He could play back then and for a few years more. But it is new, won't be out until this summer.
What do you consider a serious market? I'm sure they don't plan on making many.

It is sad, but as they say, it's a salute to him. They can't put his name on it without his approval. Hopefully he'll get some royalties.
Chris P.:
They already had a one pickup Malcolm Young sig, but not a real replica like this. I saw it at the NAMM and I like it.
