SOLD: Black Gretsch G5425 Electromatic Jet Club - £160
What's Hot
Black Gretsch G5425 Jet Club, bought new in December 2022 to scratch my George Harrison itch. Very well made and impressive value for money at this price point, unfortunately Gretschs aren't for me and it's just not getting played.
https://www.gretschguitars.com/gear/build/solid-body/g5425-electromatic-jet-club-solid-body/2519010506Really excellent condition, I hesitate to say "mint" but can't find a mark on it - the plastic is still on the truss rod cover, pickguard has never been used. Any marks you see in the photos are almost certainly dust (or from my grubby mitts).
The set-up from the shop has been fine for me. It still has its original strings. In truth it's been played extremely sparingly over the last 3-4 months, probably 10 hours total.
Pearloid pickguard included, just not photographed. For full disclosure I would say the volume knob does seem slightly wonky on its post, when turned it seems to go further away and then come back tighter to the body again. I've had this on strats before as well - there may be a simple solution but it's never bothered me enough to fix.
I still have the box it came in and can pack it well enough with the neck removed (buyer pays shipping), but collection / meet-up from or near Esher, Surrey, would be preferred.
Comments
My brother is looking for a first guitar for his daughter and I’ve suggested this one - be working in the area on Monday and can pay cash or I’ll PayPal you over the weekend if that’s easier ?
