Description
Nasty in all the right ways—this is a no-nonsense rock 'n roll Gretsch. Originally fitted with Hilo'Trons, it’s been routed for humbuckers, now loaded with a pair of no-name ceramic magnet pickups that deliver punchy, high-output tones. Think somewhere between an ES-335 and a Gretsch—hollow body warmth, minus the traditional F-holes.
It’s not conventionally pretty, but there’s a raw charm to it. Plug it in, and whatever’s wrong with your day, this thing will fix it.
Recently re-fretted in-house and has a neck reset (before we got our hands on the thing), so it plays properly and holds strong. Ready to rip however you see fit.
Made in Brooklyn, NYC, early 1967.
