Paul asked me to post a photo of the new HOF Country Gent. Notice the color, the highly flamed maple, and the outlined f holes.
I had trouble getting the photo to post properly, so here's a link:

And here's what the headstock will look like, with the special nameplate:
It's one beautiful guitar.
Thanks,
Craig

You just ruined my day Craig! Man I wish I had the money to buy one of those! I would like to have a Country Gentleman again and this one is my favorite color with Chet's 59 specs! I'm guessing it has the 1 3/4" neck right?
Thanks,

Paul said it has regular '59 specs, except for the color, the f holes (bound/inlaid), and the nameplate. (By the way, that's Mr. Gretsch holding the guitar.)

P.S. Thanks for posting the photo.

Craig,
I'm guessing that he's a visitor at the Terada factory where they make Gretsch guitars in Japan?(By the way, that's Mr. Gretsch holding the guitar.)
Thanks,
