Gretsch G5260 Baritone | I finally have one 

bro played a new loathe track and thought we wouldnt notice

Outro track slaps so hard. Congrats on the new fiddle man!

could you make a video on how you get a tone like this? it sounds lovely and I'd love to know your thought process behind it all.

I have this guitar and to get a decent tone the signal chain gets really crazy. One vst that helps a lot to get definition on the low frequencies is Gullfoss live, I pair it with Saturn from Fabfilter. That goes into any neural DSP sim and sounds a lot better than the direct input. Great video!

Ah, the sneaky rabea riff in there for taste :D Thats a instant Subscribe right there!

That low chug tease got me...

I'll for sure end up getting one of these eventually. Sound SO SO SO good

I also was looking for the Gretsch g5260 in Jade Metallic but settled on the Bristol Fog. To my surprise I loved the Bristol Fog ….a beauty. Thanks for the setup tips as I’m taking my low string to 100 also.

I’m getting one soon, so awesome to see your evaluation of it!!

that intro note hard af lmao

Finally got to see Loathe in person at Sick New World here in Vegas. 🔥 I’ve been addicted to this tone since. Very interested in hearing what new pickups would unlock for this guitar!

great review, and agreed on a lot of those points, pickup height can help a bit (you can cut up a mouse pad to raise the height) and also use a screwdriver to raise the pole pieces i found there's quite a bit of sympathetic ringing (above the nut and below the bridge) but that's easy enough to deal with i settled for now on a drop F# setup with light strings that really helps for clarity i think too

oh that's so sick! Congrats! Song sounds dooope, love that chromatic part!

I bought 28" scale baritone and from the first moment i knew that it will be my all time type of guitars. This Gretsch is really grabbing my attention! Love the SLAMMING song man!!!

I love how it looks

SO here for this

Beautiful sounds! What are the tune you playing at 12:12 ? Sounds so good 😢

I just bought one same color a month ago! Highly recommend it! I’ve played standard guitar for over 20 years. Bartone is the way to go love the low. Yes great quality. I got it from Sweetwater.

the demo track is SO SICK. You fkin rock doggie

Loving your channel and the vibe!

Hi Ryan , I’d love to know what drill size did you use to get the 105 gauge through? Thank you ❤.

Baritone and Bass VI are not interchangable terms. The Bass VI is a full octave below standard guitar range, just like any other bass. Baritones are traditionally tuned B to B.

yay!!!

squeaky clean! gorgeous guitar

I’ve been frothing at the mouth to get this exact one, my 21st coming soon lmfao so here’s hoping 🙏

That annoying bass frequency can be dialed down with a parametric EQ, no need to swap pickups.

Great video! Any chance you'll be planning on any more pickup videos? I'd love to see you maybe rewind the bridge in this baritone or something cool like that.

Daaamnn Rayn Pickup x Gretsch already? We cooking around here damnnn

The pickups have been the most uninspiring part of this guitar, so I ordered some BKP p90’s to change it up. Need to find some wooden dowels to glue into the cavity so I can mount the pickups but should be fun

Thank you Tim you the goat

Got the same one, it came set up in b standard though!! And I prefer that tuning tbh

I recently found the jade grey in second hand and it's wonderful

Bro, for the pickups, DiMarzio just came out with new Filtertron style pickups (PAF and Super Distortion) and they could help you get a better tone Nice video, btw

My friend has one and I tend to find sitting in like a classical guitar position is the best for it

I have this guitar. Put will adler fishmans in it. Truly a great instrument

GET LOATHED

Cool!

Love all the videos man. As a recent owner of a Gretsch Baritone, what action height do you recommend? When I first got mine it was super high but I lowered it recently and it suddenly sounded and played much better. Do you know of as sweet spot?

Hey man, Great Video! Have you ever thought about putting an Evertune Bridge in one of those?

HI RYAN LOVE YOU MISS YOU GOAT

A Quad Cortex rhythm preset for E/C#AEADF# would be nice. Also I've seen people retrofit these with a regular humbucker -sized Bare Knuckle Impulse on the bridge and it sounds gnarly.

If you want to have real fun, get one with a Bigsby on it 😁.

Bro has the exact loathe profile they use… I wish I could achieve that 😂

Love the guitar. Have you tried a boost to tighten up that super low C string? A precision drive or even a TS9 might do the trick or a 5 band eq.

I beg you to tell us how did you make that clean tone

I have the same drill! it's a good drill.

love the Omori shirt!! 💖

sounds great

God damn I want one too, they're so fucking cool. C'mon Gretsch, make a left hand model!

that's sick dude!

WANT WANT WANT

Ryan pls if you rewound your pickups let us non how you did it and maybe make a pair of it that we could buy😭❤️

Hey there, great review! Tried one in a guitar store. Didn't like the neck profile and the body contour didn't sit right with me. Ended up getting he Squier cabronita baritone instead. Btw, what drumkit are you using for the song at the end?

Rabea djent riff goes hard

Would be cool if they made this guitar for lefties!

i bought this guitar last year and i love it but you're right about the low end. it gets so blurry that i've been having trouble getting a crispy articulate tone without the noise floor peeking through noticeably. whats your signal chain??

Do u have the Subzero Baritone too?

from that original song seems like you could have just bought a 1 string bass and been fine

This is the best intro I've ever seen.

Dude I fw the Omori shirt

damn, you play some mean guitar!!!

not a fan of that style of music at all but based you're fronting an omori shirt with multiple zoom-ins. that's fuckin rock and roll man

Based

Instrument made for french pop and dark type stuff... Complains about literally retro specs and shape. Love it

I’d put a capo on it 😊

Noice.

Playing twelve foot ninja 3:40 i see😏

How much does it weigh?

buy 7s gauge strings. Tune it to E standard.

Dude please let me do some vocal tracks on top of that absolute *BANGER* you just dropped on us like it’s not a big deal to compose something this good 😂 It’s free HMU if you’re interested. purely for the sake of making good music Please ? 🥲
