Thank for the welcome guys!! I hope that too! Good evening, @eduzc, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. I hope the re-finish on the blue one is a success, when you put it in for repair. a

The tuners will be different, and quite easy to recognise. The 112 has fixing nuts on the top face of the headstock, the 012 does not. The photos on the web site linked to above show this very clearly (look at the two black Pacificas...).

Try an Epiphone Casino Coupé if you can. The smaller body makes the whole thing far more manageable and, being totally hollow, quite loud unplugged. The pickups are nothing to write home about but, otherwise, pretty good. For total clarity, I have one myself and have replaced the pickups and fitted a Bigsby. The 24.75" scale is way friendlier than 25.5", although the neck is quite chunky. All that being said, I'm a total Gretsch fanboy.
