Very nice playing man. Congrats. I have the exact same guitar, even the color. I just love it . I notice you wire the lower strings differently in the bigsby. Is there a reason for that?
@Valter Mondragón Make sure you use a sharp pencil, take the strings out of the nutslots and rub the pencil through the slots. The pencil graphite reduces friction in the nutslots and helps alot with tuning issues. Some use it on the bridge saddles aswell. Or try some nutsauce... yes this is an actual product. I have an older model Gretsch Electromatic I bought secondhand and it has a rollerbridge fitted. That seems to work fine aswell with bigsby use but most of the tuning issues come from a poorly cut nut. So first try to look into that if your guitar has tuning issues.
Mine used to detune until i changed a few things and now it stays in tune even with lots of use. I put some pencil lead into the nut like mentioned here but also when fitting new strings i fitted them OVER the bigsby bar. Not under like here in this video and how the guitar was originally set up. The bigsby still works pretty much the same, slightly different but still really good. Tuning stability is night and day though. I did put some .11 faltwound strings on too with a wound G but the Bigsby trick is a wonder.
Great guitar and great sounds! I work in a hospital with COVID-19 patients. A cloth or fabric mask will NOT protect you from a virus. Only an N95 mask will offer any protection.... just saying. Good video!!
I could listen to this forever
Love it. I’m watching daily at the moment. Reminds of SRV’s Riviera Paradise
I love that I own this same exact model. I watch this from time to time and just close my eyes to drift away.
Nice! I love my G5122. The only “mod” I did was sand the gloss off the neck.
Lovely playing. Awesome tone.
Feel good, very feel good.
Tasty playing. Well done
I can’t find a review of this same guitar anywhere!

Excellent.
Please sir , what pedals are used in this video ?
But the tremolo is so bad on this :( I have one :( detune everytime I use the bigsby tremolo
I have this and agree. Its ok for studio use but for gigs this would be a nightmare. Great sounding guitar tho
I have one and have had no problems with it
I FOUND A SOLUTION: USE A PENCIL AND USE IT ON YOUR NUT OF THE GUITAR, PROBLEM SOLVED

That silly black mask is so lame- But he steals the show!
The sound waves might turn into corona
In a public place with a mask. Probably other people around. What's wrong with a black mask? See them in Tokyo all the time.

The sound is VERY different without the mask!
Yeah, the mask is cringe. The deep state fooled alot of people on that one.
