WITHDRAWN - Gretsch Electromatic G5122 in Walnut for £425

What's Hot

The purge continues!

This is a beauty! I've had it for about 3 years and I bought it from a friend who had it from new, so I know its history. 

The guitar is in immaculate, ungigged condition. It plays really well and sounds very .... Gretschy! This is a Korean model and is the 125th anniversary limited edition (which dates it to 2008).

No case but could send well bubble-wrapped in a strong guitar carton.

I would like £500 - would anyone like to give me £500? 

Will courier at cost (I would think it would be about £15-20 for insured delivery).

    They are great guitars! Not played an original US Gretsch but these Korean ones are a step above the competition!

    You asked the question 'is the price too high' and if you search Gretsch G5122 in eBay completed listings you will find your answer.

    No - I think insured delivery will be £10-15 so £440 delivered 

    As Mark said, a bargain!

    I live in Bristol but coincidentally, I will be in Coventry this weekend! It must be fate!

    Interesting! I'm working away from home this week, but I should be home this weekend. Can I let you know in a day or two? 

    If it's not too much trouble for you I'd be interested in seeing the guitar if I'm in Coventry myself :)

    No problem - I'll have a car full of gear cos I'm doing a PA but can squeeze it in.

    Cheers
