SOLD FS - FT 2005 Gretsch G6120w-1957 Fender Jaguar or Vintera Jaguar.
Hi All,
I bought this from the goodly @DrCornelius and as the Doc said: "Has a really smooth action. Light as a feather , nice size and with a polite Lindy Fraulin neck p90 and a hot dynasonic in the bridge." I have a Gretsch G6120 DSV western orange and I find only one gets played. I won't be sad if it doesn't get sold that is for sure. Original thread is below with a full description and comments. - https://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/194519/on-hold-2005-gretsch-g6120w-1957
Gassage has identified that I no longer have an offset since I sold my Johnny Marr. I have the cash now but no space so I would need to let a guitar go. I paid £1625 and that is what I will let it go for, price is firm so no offers thanks.
Ideally, looking for a Vintera Jaguar Ocean Turquoise + fair amount of cash. Possibly interested in a trade for USA Jaguar (I suppose cash could be added either way) what is out there? I am fussy about the colour I don't like the sunburst jags.
Based in Wales near Swansea but travel to Bristol often. I don't want to operate with Couriers but willing to do some driving. Pictures stolen from the Doc cause I'm busy have shed loads to again - let me know if an issue.

is the bridge Dyna original, or has it been rewound? How do the pickups play together?
The bridge looks original Dyna sonic.
Hard to describe the tone of the P90 combined it evens out the Dynatron and changes the game when adding some overdrive. It can match these tones:
Mine is slightly more mellow because I dropped some flatwounds on.
The above video comes from the link below which has a full spec, I don't think it will be hugely different as it is only 1 year younger. Correct me if I am wrong but apparently 2004 was the start of Fender's quality control on Gretsch guitar.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
Note: There are a few enquiries about this guitar. I would rather sell to somebody who can try this before buying - it is just the way I work, I would rather people be happy.
Not sure where @robgilmo is he usually buys all my guitars :-) I think he will vouch for me as a seller.

Let me know if you want more info. I see you are Bristol based I can travel across next weekend depending on other discussion in background you are free to try it next weekend 2nd April. I can bring to your place if you want to hear it through your own kit.
DM me if interested.
The Gretsch quality at that period is certainly impressive with what I have seen on the two I have owned, superb guitars.
