Can't fault the Gretsch's, their wornderfully playable. I've never played a Bullet as I've not found one anywhere. I'd imagine them to have more Tele leanings over Strat. But if your into semi's the the Hofner Verithin has to be one to look out for.

Oh dear...Lee mate it's quite an expensive and very nice guitar,look's better to the naked eye then on the pics,and sounds amazing...;)

Bump mate i found the bullet and then did some reserch on it,it turns out it's a quite rare guitar and was only made for a short time in the mk1 style in late 81.
I had never seen one before anywhere,so had to have it...
Thank you Mr visa :D

It's dose sound dead on like a cross between a strat and a tele though,so dam nice! :thumb:

I tried once. I bought a 5 string years ago and the bloke who was selling it had just bought a 6 string, he took it out of the case for me to have a go and I could barely fit my hand around the neck. Fecking ridiculous if you ask me.

Another stupid bass that I borrowed off a mate for a while was a fretless, headless, cricket bat shaped kind of thing. It was good fun but looked too stupid to actualy use on stage.

A fretless, headless, cricket bat shaped thing, I've seen them and wondered who the hell would have one of those! lol

Or one of those Yamaha midi guitars form the mid 90's? WTF were they all about?
