I remember seeing a site where you could buy scratch plates, truss rod covers etc with your name or signature etched on to turn your axe into your own 'signaure' model but lost it before I had the wit to add to my favourites. Anyone know of such sites?

How good is the quality of Gretsch guitar?

I've heard great thing but I want some opinions.
I'm thinking of buying this hollowbody electric.

what is your opinion/personal experience?
Gretsch makes some pretty good guitars, i personally dont prefer hollow bodies but thats up to you.
16" x 2.75" laminated maple hollowbody (gloss urethane finish)
Laminated maple neck (24.6" scale)
Rosewood fingerboard
21 medium jumbo frets
1-11/16" nut width
Vintage style machine heads
2 Gretsch chrome covered Dual-Coil pickups
Master tone, master volume, neck pickup volume, bridge pickup volume
3-position pickup toggle
G-Arrow Knobs
Adjusto-Matic bridge on rosewood base
Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece
Gretsch knurled strap knobs
Chrome-plated hardware
Gloss urethane finish
really the only thing i dont like about it is it only has 21 frets.. pickups arent the best either..
