2005 Gretsch Brian Setzer Black Phoenix. This is about the coolest-looking Gretsch model but I just don't play it. I'm keeping my White Falcon for sentimental reasons so I'm selling this one.

The guitar is in excellent condition, I am the first owner. There is a bit of "shop wear" from when I bought it but it's hard to photograph. There are some very slight swirl marks, some around the pickup selector and possibly one or two slight surface scratches. There is also a small (1/8") mark in the finish on the back of the neck. All from prior to my purchase from being handled in the shop from where I bought it. I tried to photograph everything; please study the pictures closely to determine the condition of the guitar.

I just had the frets polished and the guitar set up by luthier Matt Artinger to get it ready to sell.

This model has a beautiful nitrocellulose lacquer finish, Gretsch trestle bracing, ebony fretboard, TV Jones TV Classic Filtertrons, and silver sparkle everywhere! It's plays and sounds great!

Nut width measures 1.68", C-shaped neck measures .82" at the 1st fret and .92" at the 10th fret. The heel starts after that so the normal 12th fret measurement is affected but it is 1.02". The guitar weighs 7 lbs, 5 oz.

Original case and all tags and paperwork including the Certificate of Authenticity.

I will only ship to the lower 48 USA states.
