About this listing

Very good condition 1956 Gretsch Duo Jet in black. All original with no structural damage. The original Dearmond Dynasonic pickups some nice and warm and take overdrive nicely. There is lighter player wear on the top, with a smaller buckle rash on the back as pictured. Played but not abused. No scratchy pots. Medium weight. Some vert light wear on the top of the headstock. Possible back plate replacement. Comes with a nice Gretsch case as pictured. Willing to ship or drive a reasonable distance. Always open to offers!
