Gretsch calls it a Baritone, but it comes from the factory tuned EBGDAE like a Bass VI. 30" scale length. 1-11/16" nut width, just a little wider than the Fenders and it feels great to me. I used this more for guitar style chordal playing than as a short scale bass. The Bigsby works great and stays in tune, but the low E string nut slot should probably be widened just a tiny bit because that's the only one that doesn't always return to tune perfectly. No dings or scratches or anything, the black sparkle looks great. A little bummed I have to let it go, but I'm moving to Washington and this can't come with me. Will ship in one of the lower end Levy's bass guitar gig bags branded by Daddy's Junky Music. The bag is a little long for this bass, but it works well enough.
