Details

Selling off my Gretsch- it's a really neat little instrument, and it's kinda hard giving up that Bigsby, but as far as short-scale sixers go, my Dano just does it better for me.

Scale just a hair under 30"
Alder body
Maple bolt-on neck w/rosewood board
2 Gretsch mini-humbuckers
V/T and 3-way selector
And, my personal favorite, that wonderful Bigbsy vibrato

Tuned E-E one octave below guitar (same EADG as a standard bass, plus a high B & E), but you could string it up as a baritone if that's what floats your boat. Still perfectly minty, by the way.

$400 shipped w/gig bag in the continental US. Not really interested in trades, but if you've got something especially neat, feel free to check anyway- you never know. Any questions, just ask here or shoot me a PM.

I haven't got a camera, but here are some pics from the seller I originally bought it from:

Bump with some measurements, since I know neck dimensions and string spacing can be a pretty big factor on a sixer like this-

Nut width is just shy of 1 3/4"
String spread at the bridge is around 2", which puts string-to-string spacing at about 10mm.

From strap pin to headstock, it's about 43"- nearly as long overall as a P. Not sure of the weight, but it is fairly heavy. Balances pretty well on the strap, maybe due to the extra weight of the Bigsby on the body end.

If anybody has any other questions, or wants some specific measurements, or whatever else, my PM box is open to ya, and if for whatever reason you prefer email, my address is [email protected]
