Introducing the All-New Gretsch Nigel Hendroff Signature Penguin | Gretsch Guitars
/ gretschguitars - เพลง
Honestly the best Gretsch I've ever played.
Hey thanks for the review you guys did with the prototype. Wondering about a followup to the reviews you gave on the prototype gretsch's you had back in 2022. 😅
Please 🙏, share whether gretsch had made those adjustments or, if not, you'd still recommend the solutions you guys provided.
Beautiful guitar, fantastic story. Hats off to Gretsch for stretching your reach to bring attention to musicians that no one else in the big corporate music world pays attention to. Please do more of this.
What a guy. Love his humility. Also love that red guitar. 🙂
after years and years of penguin being one of the most rare guitar model.. it's about time with the right person! Salute Gretsch and Nigel!
Love Nigel. Humble as always. Also, the colors of those guitars together 0:05 are like Bread and Wine.
truly one of the most humble guys out there. inspirational.
Now that is a special guitar from a very special man, love his chops and his humility.
One of the best playing , quality guitars I have ever owned. Love the pickups, has Gretsch sound but fuller. The top is just beautiful!
What a great speech to listen to. His happiness and enthusiasm are infectious, and encourages me even more to start looking for my own perfect Gretsch!
What a player and what an honour!
I'd never heard of him until i stumbled across the gorgeous red one... Great player and insanely gorgeous build.
Nigel's tone is always perfect and beautiful. Godbless you more🙏
Mine comes in today!! So stoked!
Well deserved my friend! Hope to get my hands on one someday ;)
Wow! A signature guitar actually would like to have.
Remember him with his Duesenberg ( sorry !) but this one is awesome and stunning !!!! Well done once again Gretsch 🎸👍
So cool , love this guitar and the artist is amazing
I would love to have this guitar. Extremely nice!
Good to hear someone acknowledge Mark Lizzotte/Diesel
Nice axe mate
Awesome!
Beautiful.
I got mine already!
So amazingly Cool. Thankyou
i kind of want this now ! .
Looks great! I bet it plays great too. I'm selling a few Firebirds to get the Richard Fortus signature Falcon(Stop tailpiece). The best sounding and playing guitar in a long time
That thing is just beatiful man
just looked at the price...
I had never heard of him but instantly knew he was a worship guitarist of some kind.
If you've heard hillsong songs, you've more than likely heard him.
Came across the amber version hanging in a little shop in NC while traveling this weekend…it ended up following me home. Well played Nigel and Gretsch! 😂
😂That's awesome
Beautiful……absolutely beautiful looking and better yet the sound. At least for my ears .
I don’t play but I got my nephew a Gretsch. He’s a hardcore Les Paul guy. For the past year he plays a Gretsch. I may buy him one of theses
It seems that the duo jet is more twangy. The sound of this one is more punchy and warm, like a Gibson but with this special gretsch clarity. To my ears...
Gretsch finally made one, 👍
Where can I find this man’s music? Seems Spotify doesn’t have it l sadly. His playing is gorgeous!
mostly he's with Hillsong worship
I’m in
Was looking for a Penguin model to fall in love with..
I got the Blond version just over a month ago... stunning guitar
Do you feel the guitar was worth the money? I am strongly considering this guitar. Do the broadtrons provide the same clarity as filtertrons? Thanks
@@AndrewPrater116 I was always skeptical about the pricing of Gretsch. But not this time. I got the metallic cherry one, and man, it is exceptional.
Que buena guitarra mi sueño es tener una avisen cuando regalen una grestch
Such a beautiful guitar! The top and the block inlays make a great guitar even better! Im taking a break from Gibsons, and going to grab either one of these or the usual Penguin. Thats a great story, and the perfect ambassador for these great guitars. You can tell how excited he is.
Gibson came out with a Slash version of the Les Paul. They had nice finishes but weren't anything particularly special. This musician did a much better job with both the image he presents to the public as well as the guitar design he came up with. Kudos to Gretsch. Im torn between the 58/59 Vintage Penguin and this limited release here. Both are super perfect.
You can't go wrong with either.
How well does it stay in tune?
wwwwwooooooowwwwww great guy like him deserves great guitar signature.......
Sweet axe
Gretsch, you should watch Damon Chivers TH-cam channel!!
For me he is the best exponent of what playing a Gretsch is all about - expression, great sounds, love of guitar & fun.
Please ask him on to your channel
but I thought Hendroff's fav pickups were powertrons. how come they aren't in here?
Cause he found better with this update. More punch and warmth...
My videos would look much cooler with one these beauties!! 😍
bought it, what a great guitar and what a pity to be ruined by the bigsby.. next one is hardtailed
Hey Jimmy Congrats I hope you enjoying it!
WDYM "ruined by the bigsby" ? is it not holding in tune
it doesnt hold tuning.. especially if you use the bigsby, its goodnight tuning right away, even with a very careful and easy vibrato..! @@roior
PLEASE MAKE A HARDTAIL
Sooo the Duo Jet from God He reigns is just $1000? 😆🤣
9:47 David Moyse is why I finally own a White Falcon. Saw him play it on For This Cause in 2000 when I was 12 and told myself I’d own one one day. Now a proud owner of the Michael Guy Chislett edition. Also my name is Nigel too and I’ve been a fan of Droff since I saw him play on You Are My World using an emerald green PRS custom 22.
That price range and no stainless steel frets :-/
I would feel tempted to play satanic Death Metal on that if I ever bought one..... 😄
$3500.00 uh no.
Pretty normal price for a penguin.
The very last thing the world needs is a guitar named after a worship leader. It’s even worse that the worship leader in question serves at a church that is known to be a financially dishonest, homophobic, abusive, and sexist cult. If Gretsch backed up a player that represented an organization that was financially dishonest, homophobic, abusive, and sexist that was NOT a church, they’d be cancelled and blackballed in a hot second. This is such a shame, because Rock and Roll was invented with Gretsch guitars. This literally makes me sick. Do better.
Yeah this isn't the move.
THANK GOD SOME ONE ELSE IS SEEING THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS - YES YOU ARE RIGHT BUT READ MY ABOVE POINTS TO ADD TO.
Gretsch DOES NOT need to couple itself to this genre nor these artists to sell units to further there brand - GRETSCH IS GRETSCH
Yup the market is changing with Gretsch I'm not liking it this isn't the 1st time they endorse a gospel artist they also sponsor Jesus Culture the cringe is unreal
@@Steve_305 im getting melted in the comments for this but at least there are a few of you out there who are up for calling it out - Im not anti anyones beliefs but I said this in the other thread Religion doesn't bowed well with anything including business or state.
I have had a look thru a few Gretsch videos and interviews of these guys and I think the VP Jason Barnes must be connected to maybe them personally. He seems to be the spear head behind promoting these types of endorsements - Again it will be because they push numbers thru streams or you tube etc but so dangerous to put Gretsch in bed with churches.
Churches have existed long before Gretsch - Do they need any more help being endorsed then burning that bridge with however they are entangled with. I buy Gretsch and there guitars because the kind of guitarists that deserve it have come from NO WHERE with NO ONE behind them to create SOMETHING bigger than themselves. You can't put these guys in the box as much as you try - They are all straight copies of The Edge. I like Chet causes he sounds like Chet therefore Chet gets a signature...I like Setzer cause he is the focal point and spear heard of rockabilly and sounds like Setzer therefore he gets a signature...You can't do the same for these guys - Gretsch has gone with "everyones a winner here" like our stupid leftist culture has gone for these guys...It desecrates the effort and work people who have gotten a signature model for for these guys to "Just get a signature model"???
Again im not anti anyones belief system but to earn a Gretsch signature they don't fit the bill and Im nervous about Gretsch's choices moving forward in doing so. Its not that hard to read between the lines surely???
Seems Gretsch is heading towards a different direction pandering to a hipster/gospel audience not looking good
Michael Guy and Nigel are great players no questions asked - But as prolific and established as Chet, Malcom, Setzer? No way
What this shows me is a few things - There is a serious lack of great players contemporary that Gretsch could join with which isn't Gretsch's fault. My issue is that I think Gretsch think that Church Inspirational music (ie: Hillsong which includes both MGC and NH) is worth moving into business with. Hillsong, Bethel etc may move units or streams but the downfall of being tied to a religious system never ends well and even now we are seeing Hillsong being called out international for its ridiculous choice of how it operates business and with people.
Have Gretsch really wanted to tie themselves to an already sinking ship? Are they fully aware of this situation globally and not just been given downloads and streams of MGC and NH to think that these two are really going to move the brand forward in the right way? Is Gretsch just trying to cash grab in a time where music is in serious decline?
I don't think Gretsch needs these two players to further there name - I see no honest utility to bring on "religious royalty" to an already established brand - You can't mix church and state, you can't mix church and politics and church music crossing over into the global market isn't an issue but it always ends in a mess.
I hope Gretsch has made a balanced choice in their artist roster. No church musicians to date so why start now?
I think Nigel is very much as prolific and established as they others you mentioned, but in the CCM community. Modern CCM has a pretty stringent set of requirements of you want to be heard in the extremely dense mix. Gretsch has the chime and top end to punch through it, which is why CCM artists started gravitating towards Gretsch in the first place.
I don't see a problem with bringing "religious royalty" either. Church and business generally go pretty well together. They're free to do whatever they want and personally I'm happy to see Gretsch embracing the community without the discrimination. THAT'S what breeds respect and loyalty in my book.
Mentioning a worship leader made me watch the announcement. Sure, the players you mentioned may have greater name recognition, but there are a lot of inspired worship leaders to be looking for a good guitar.
Guys all for Jesus
@@joshs7 Respect and loyalty aren't what Gretsch are fostering nor is any company. The history books have always found that when church and business or state or politics etc get together it never ends well. Its easy for you to see my comment as discriminatory but in ranking in any hierarchy you'll find there are lots of losers and 1 maybe two winners - Thats what it takes to be prolific.
As for prolific I doubt that would be the word - I can tell that the majority of the comments are from church goers. That doesn't rank as prolific. There is currently a little over 2 billion christians in the world.
Which means there is a little over 5 billion of us that hold the market that can't be wrong.
@@jeffs6114 well your first assumption of many is that all 2 billion play guitar.
I won't go any further - you've really out done yourself.
That is sweet.
Hey, amazing video!
With this a new model, wondering about a followup to the reviews given on the prototype gretsch's done back in 2022. 😅
In the review the guys mentioned that likely, the finished product would have improvements made, as it purtained to tunning stability and such.
Please 🙏, share whether you guys had made those adjustments or, if not, what solutions you'd recommend to aid in tuning stability. The afore mentioned team recommended a roller tunomatic bridge and 2 nylon washers at two main points to raise the bridge so the break angel is too steep.
I was concerned that it would have a slight impact, though, on the tone you envisioned.
I find that there are just some real world compromises that exist when optomizing in a particular direction for tone. Ex. A floating bridge on a strat... if you know, you know 😅😢😂.
yada yada yada! You really like ta hear yerself talk don't-cha!
