sorry - no trades - selling it only because I need the space 😊

Ah yes Graham - how are you. It is the one and it still sounds great! I just doesn't get played enough due to other musical ventures - love the new EB album

PRICE REDUCED TO £1999.00 £1850 The bass was manufactured in August 1966, in Brooklyn, New York - one of the last to be manufactured there before the company merged with Baldwin and moved to Arkansas A great example of a rare vintage Gretsch bass popularised by Peter Tork of The Monkees. It has all the classic Gretsch features - simulated F-holes, tone & standby switches, mute pad - just to name a few. The original burgundy finish has faded into more of a light walnut/caramel color. A real gem & a must have for any serious collector or vintage tone enthusiast. Cosmetic Condition: Overall the bass is in very good condition with very little wear. The heel cap has been professionally replaced due to a little bit of deterioration, but the body binding is in great shape. The bass sounds awesome with no playability issues! It's been professionally set up & everything is in perfect working condition. It currently has D’addario ETB92 nylon tapewound strings which sound superb! Neck: Chunky maple neck with thick ebony fingerboard & mother of pearl dot inlays. Original frets have plenty of life in them. Large, sealed-back tuners are original & in perfect working condition. 1 5/8" nut width with zero fret; 29 1/2" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine. Body: Single-cutaway, hollow maple body with simulated F-holes & bound top. "G" cutout tailpiece with Space Control bridge. The mute assembly is working although slightly worn. Original pad & control panel on the back of the body. Bass weighs around 8 lbs. Pickup: Gretsch SuperTron bass humbucker with gold bezel. Master volume with "G" Arrow control knob; 3-way tone switch & standby switch. All electronics are in perfect working condition. The Original hardshell case is also included - please be aware that it is a vintage 60's case so isn't in the best of shape - but still fully functional.
