It's Big Table Time and I have a project that I have been needing to do for a while - to replace the bridge on my Gretsch White Falcon. Enjoy!
Update: after a couple days I must say that this guitar is now perfect. I cannot imagine better action and playability for a hollowbody. Really a treat to play now!

>SIGH!< Design by committee… Intentional defects in an otherwise excellent guitar. Sorry, Fran.
Looking forward to the concert!❤
You must have pretty good grip strength, I've used that kind of shear type bolt cutters before and it was pretty tough even for a small screw.
Just a sample of Fran jam please?
You are such a geek. I have a Gretsch, and love it.
Excellent video Fran, although I was hoping to hear you play it at the end!
Cool guitar and cool to watch you working on it, Fran. I'll take all you got of that! I hope you'll give us a little playing demo when the final tweaks are done.❤
Hmmm….what did you use to “file” the saddles ? Do you have a set of Nut Files ?

Lovely guitar. Really fine work Fran.
Are those jeweled control knobs originals?
I've got a Gretsch (not a White Falcon)… I was putting off doing mind, but I might do that now!
Just when I thought Fran couldn’t be any cooler!
It's Malcolm Young's stolen Gretsch White Falcon…..the one used on the Back in Black album.

Nice!
