The scale length has varied over the years. Believe the current ones are 24.6" but prior to this/last year they were 25.5" which might be even better for those 'cutting cleans' you describe - I can definitely hear the difference between them.
I have a 25.5" version here - 2013 I believe. It has a lotta 'pop' on it... in the best possible way.
This might have to happen!
They are unlike all the other guitars and really get under your skin. I personally prefer the Annies and Tennys to the more blingy end of the line up. I’m more comfy in jeans and working boots than a tux and diamonds but they all have that sound and feel.
The 6119 maybe bottom of the pro range but it's 100% Gretsch and stomps over any Electromatic, which are also getting better.
My next guitar is a 6118 without bigsby.
One thing I don't want is the painted f-holes as can't get my head round that at all. Rest I'm pretty flexible if it sounds right. Might look around for used too now...
