T.S.O.L'.s Ron Emory: 'Gretsch Guitars Are Rock And Roll Guitars All the Way' | Gretsch Guitars
TSOL guitarist Ron Emory loves Gretsch: "Of course Gretsch is a very popular guitar with rockabilly - you’ve got all the greats from the past like Cochran who played them originally- and they do get a fantastic sound for rockabilly... But, they are rock and roll guitars all the way. I mean, they are absolutely rock and roll guitars.” The punk rock guitarist recaps some of his favorite Gretsch axes over the year and explains what he loves about their unique sound.

More About This Video:
“The pickups have such a unique high end where it just punches through but you still have that low-end grind on them," says EMORY. I know some of the older hollow bodies were a bit hard to control but if you set your amp up properly you could get some really unique sounds through them.”
And with some of the newer Gretsch models in particular, Emory notes how "with the master volume you can control the amount of gain and output and you can really get some really nice overtones. I use multiple amps and kind of split them up stereo so you can get these really cool harmonic feedbacks that you can’t get with any other guitar. I couldn’t get it with a Gibson, I couldn’t get it with anything else.”
About Gretsch:
With its emphasis on hand-craftsmanship and commitment to quality over a storied 135 years and counting, Gretsch has pioneered new designs and manufacturing techniques, winning endorsements from some of the music industry’s most respected artists, including Chet Atkins, Eddie Cochran, Billy Duffy, Bono, Duane Eddy, George Harrison, Brian Setzer, Stephen Stills and Malcolm Young.

Ron Emory is probably my biggest guitar influence . absolutely love his style.His playing on Dance With Me and Change Today is still like nothing else out there.I like Tim Kerr and Stevie T's guitar work too among hundreds of others but Ron is my favorite.thanks Ron and T.S.O.L for the great music.
There's nothing that sounds like a Gretsch. Wonderful instruments.
Love Ron's guitar on t.s.o.l records dance with me and especially change today
Yes, Gretsch and Punk Rock!! You guys need to do more of this kind of mini interviews!
Ron Emory = Legend !
Respect. I never woulda thought I'd see TSOL killin it in 2021 still looking healthy. Ron- glad your still killing it bro. And yes nothing like a Gretchen, especially the old ones but hey they aren't as roadworthy as these new ones. Much love
Way back in 2003 or 2004 I came across a lefty Gretch at a guitar center, it was a thin hollow body (don’t remember the name of the model). But damn did it sound freakin amazing, to this day way better than anything else I’ve played. They definitely have such a unique badass sound about them.
Love this guys music, and he tells a good story as well!
Cool interview! I love TSOL , one of.my favorite bands.
Ron’s a classic individual with mad style& a nice dude ya boot .
Change Today is my favourite record ... despite being a ‘70s Strat 😂 Need interview with Billy Zoom

Mine are Beneath the Shadows and Revenge, Dance With Me is a very close second. Favorite EP is Weathered Statues.
You have a lot of interesting history behind you Ron,, i hope your school in Sioux City is doing great
This guy rocks.
great guitarist. i'm playing old tsol on a tele now but i'll go to the store and try a gretsch.
Great video! Thanks for sharing that with us. I'm a Gretsch fan, too. I believe that every serious American guitarist need to own at least one Gretsch, a Fender, and a Gibson.

Nothing wrong with cheap guitars homie.
Hello Ron 👍
Great Video Ron, Marcus.
Ron Emory meets Bo Diddley and John Lee Hooker ? Now talk about a Double - whammy .
Yep
Bro, Check out Django Reinhardt, acoustic and plastic strings to boot.
Hello from Brazil 🇧🇷 ! Be attemptive! Free Market Economy is coming! LOW TAXES, MORE SALES! This brand is welcome here. I'm not a guitarrist lol lol lol 😆.
Nobody bends a note like Ron Emory. Listen to those bends on Joykiller 1, then try to find them on Static and Three (both great records). Absolutely inimitable. Old Huntington had lots of great bands before the fascists ate our music, but none of them sound like Main St. sonic violence the way Ron Emory does.

Fascists ate your music?
Chet Atkins certainly did not play punk rock
Yes, hello, may I have free guitar?
Less talk, more rock please, and tune that thing.
