Basic Gretsch Guitar Setup -- You can do this too! 5427tg

Basic guitar setup on a new Gretsch 5427 anyone can do.  In this video I change out the factory round wound strings for a fresh new set of Thomastik Infeld Jazz Swing flat wound strings, using a few simple tools and published setup specifications.  I also give the guitar a full setup including neck relief, string action, intonation and pickup height, with tips for stringing a Bigsby tremolo bridge.  Thanks for watching and time stamps below.
