2005 Gretsch 6118 25th Anniversary model w/Bigsby in great condition. Made in Japan in the Fujigen factory, 2005 $1375 /PayPal'd plus shipping. Set up and unplayed with Pyramid .011 strings

Sperzel tuners for original Gretsch deluxe high gear chrome-plated Grover V98C Sta-Tite Die-cast Tuners
Compton compensated copper bridge
Oh, yeah, and it has a Vibromate Spoiler, which makes restringing a 30 second proposition in the heat of the moment.
