Description
What makes this guitar special: 100% original & a stupendous player with exquisite, natural acoustic resonance. Just recently acquired, not only with its original case, but also with the original blue OK Card as well. One could totally see this gorgeous Jet Firebird in the hands of Malcolm Young, kicking out rich, powerful tones from the pair of FilterTron humbuckers. Professionally inspected & set up by the experts at Cream City Music, so she's ready for action straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Good honest play wear with an ultra cool, true vintage vibe - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. Overall the guitar looks great with a beautiful patina.
Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & red side-dots. Ebony fingerboard with mother of pearl "thumbnail" inlays. Frets show some wear, but have plenty of life in them. Bound headstock with Grover tuners in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width with zero fret; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Double-cutaway, chambered mahogany body finished in black. Laminated maple cap finished in red with 3-ply binding. Burns tremolo tailpiece with Space Control bridge. Black plexi pickguard with white Gretsch logo. Guitar weighs 6 lbs 13.5 oz.
Electronics: FilterTron humbuckers with gold bezels. Master volume & individual pickup volume controls with "G" Arrow knobs. 3-way pickup, tone & stand by switches. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original hardshell case included along with Gretsch OK Card.
