There’s something about a late-‘70s Country Gentleman that just hits differently—and this 1977 G7670 is a perfect example of why. Built during the final stretch of Gretsch’s original USA production era, this is a big, bold hollowbody with unmistakable presence, both visually and sonically.

At its core, the G7670 is everything you want from a classic Gretsch: a fully hollow maple body that delivers that airy, articulate resonance, paired with dual humbuckers that bring warmth, clarity, and just enough bite to cover everything from jazz and country to rockabilly and classic rock.

This era also marked a shift toward more open, lively designs—featuring real f-holes instead of the earlier simulated style—giving the guitar a more acoustic, responsive feel under your hands. And with the signature walnut finish and gold hardware, it carries that unmistakable upscale Gretsch look that never feels overdone.

It’s a player’s vintage piece—big body, short scale feel, and a tone that sits perfectly in a mix. The kind of guitar that doesn’t just sound good on its own, but makes everything around it sound better too.

Specs: Fully hollow double-cutaway laminated maple body (approx. 17" wide, 2" deep); maple neck with set-neck construction; neck dimensions 1st .7785" ~ .8510"; bound ebony fingerboard with thumbnail inlays and 22 frets; 24.5" scale length; 1 11/16" nut width; classic Gretsch control layout; Tune-O-Matic style bridge with Bigsby vibrato tailpiece; gold-plated hardware. Walnut gloss finish; Original-style Gretsch hardshell case. 

Weight: 8 lbs 8 oz.

Electronics: Dual Filter’Tron humbuckers; individual pickup volume controls with master volume; three-way pickup selector; three-way tone switch for preset tonal shaping.

Condition: Very Good. Guitar has been profesisonally refretted. Tons of checking, tons of mojo. No major blems. No structural defects or flaws.
