FS: Gretsch G6122-1958 Gent ** SOLD **
** SOLD ** (eBAY listing follow-up)
Hate to do this especially after all the personalizations, but I want to get down to only 3 Gretschs and this one got the nod to part with.
2006 G6122-1958 Country Gentleman with upgrades. Excellent condition. A few very superficial scratches on the back that I cannot capture in pics. The neck has a minor indentation which does not affect playing whatsoever. Can't feel it at all. I would not have invested money in upgrades if this was an issue. It might be to you however, so full disclosure. (the pic in the links is with flash and overemphasis the dent).
The personalizations:
- TV Jones Supertron neck pickup
- TV Jones Classic Plus bridge pickup
- Tru-Arc brass BR-120 bridge
- Gretsch / Bigsby B6 V-cutout tailpiece
- Chet wire arm swivel handle
- Refretted with Dunlop 6130 medium jumbo frets. Superb fret job ! Same frets as on my '59 HOF Gent
As new condition Gretsch case. No paperwork.
$1900 plus shipping to CONUS

Would SOMEBODY buy this beauty? I fell in love with it the first time I saw it, but I ain't got the scratch to buy it.
Or, does anybody want to buy a lung? I've never smoked(hey, I grew up in the late 60's, early 70's. Everybody tried it), the lung has not been exposed to much pollution, comes with full warranty from the Maker. Specify right, or left lung.
Thank you.

Hey Mitch never got the email but would like to meet you some day even if not about the guitar.
Do you ever go by Instrumental Music there in 1000 Oaks? I go by almost every weekend to see if they get any cool trade in stuff.

This one
Ok guys, any of you out there looking at this guitar I saw it in person today and I was floored at how good it looks plays and sounds. I was going in thinking maybe I could talk Mitch down on the price some but after seeing and playing the guitar I couldn't do it. After consulting my banker I can't afford it right now because of Taxes but it's a Winner for sure you won't be unhappy with it.
And by the way Mitch plays great Chet finger style stuff. And was good enough to meet me at a local music store to check the guitar out.
