Finally for this post, we have the Fenderised version of Bono's Gretsch. Is it a Green Falcon? Irish Falcon?
Anyway, this is the end result. Not as cool as the previous ones, but still a good guitar to have.
Needs a bigsby tho.
Weird, wonderfull, beautiful, weird again. Guitars and more guitars and whatever takes my fancy.

Gretsch/ Fender White Chicken
Like the previous photo, this was made as an exhibition piece, but woudn't it be great if it was a general production model. Maybe we should petition Fender/ Gretsch and see if they can make them available, even if only for a limited run.
Based on the White Falcon, this has been christened the White Chicken.
Amazing work.

Now this is what I call guitar porn!

A cross between a Telecaster and a 6120. Looks absolutley amazing. I'm not a huge fan of Telecasters, or Fenders in general, but I would sell my kids to own this guitar. It has a vibe, you know? Even if it sounded crap, it'd be an amazing guitar to have in my collection. Just love how it's managed to capture the look of both guitars.
I beleive this was made just after Fender aquired Gretsch, there were a couple of other variations, pics to come soon of them. Would be great if they made production models of this, and even the other guitars. I'd definatley buy this one!
