Description
What makes this guitar special: If you’re looking to get started with a Gretsch or simply looking to add a good-quality yet inexpensive face to your guitar roster, this is a solid choice. The mini-humbuckers sound great across the board from the wide neck response to the classic hot Gretsch bite in the bridge. The neck plays easily, and thanks to its size and shape, should be a very easy transition for a wide variety of players. The overall look is simple, yet carries staple elements of the brand, including the G Arrow control knobs, Gretsch branded raised pickguard, and G cutout tailpiece. Plus, for a used guitar, it is still in great shape in terms of aesthetics and playability, making it a great choice all-around.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall, if not better. It does possess various nicks, dings, dents, and scratches, but is largely very clean and still looks great head to toe. The frets show almost no wear whatsoever and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod is functioning.
