Very nice kit and a great story.

I read through the posts here and can't recall if anyone mentioned Gretsch has a NEW Micro Sensitive strainer....should be ready for the retail market in May or sooner. Thought I'd mention it because you might want to just fix your original - tuck it away (it's very "sensitive" you know) - and use the new one. I have a 58 RB kit in your sizes.....and that's what I'll be doing with my strainer.

Good job on the kit mate!Party
