Gretsch Guitars

1966 Gretsch 6122 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman. Absolutely perfect working condition.  All electronic, pots, PUs original, as is the case.  I am the 2nd owner and bought the guitar from a Gretsch collector.  Body and neck are in great shape, frets have plenty of life left, action is great for "chet"picking, with no buzz on neck.  Binding is cracked in spots on edge of neck (but still in place) and some deteriated spots around the body.  Guitar has double mutes and pads need to be adjusted. Body has normal wear for 45 year old guitar, but no dings, cracks in the finish or wood.  Gold finished hardware has tarnish in places. Neck joint is SOLID.  Case is in great shape as all latches work fine.  None of the cracked binding affects the playability of the guitar. I have verified serial number and it was built (Brooklyn,USA) in 9th month of 1966. (Ser # 96---).  this is your chance to own a great original for less than you'd pay for a new Japanese Gretsch.  Gruhn Guitars, Nashville, has appraised the guitar and it is priced right.  I have another Gretsch Country Gentleman and just don't need to keep 2. I will pack securely and ship as soon as payment is verified to USA and Canada.  I accept Pay Pal.  Shipping will be free to Buy It Now, otherwise, shipping costs will be charged to exact destination.
