Who buys vintage guitars? We do!
Call 530-570-1525 or email sales@maharsvintageguitars.com to sell your vintage guitar, bass, amplifier, etc - one piece or a collection! We are always ready to buy instruments, amps and effects from Fender, Gibson, Martin, Epiphone, Rickenbacker, Gretsch, Marshall, Vox and just about anything else related to musical instruments.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - this era of Gretsch guitars are greatly undervalued. These Japanese builds are fantastic! The playability of these guitars versus most vintage examples is almost incomparable. The fit and finish is just better - neck sets, fret work, etc etc.
This G6120 is from 2004, and it is all original with no changes or repairs. It is a great player, and the truss rod was checked as well to make sure that there is room for future neck relief adjustment.
The frets show the lightest pitting, and overall it looks like the guitar was played very little over the past 20 years.
There is a little bit of fogginess to the finish on the headstock - the only "issue" I would point out. The finish isn't separating from the rood there, and it appears that it could be buffed or polished out. It is just a little hard to get in there and work on it with the tuners in the way.
The original case is included.
