Scooby Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) I have only just acquired this bass and would much prefer to keep it. However, I need to sell either the Fender American Jazz I have up for sale or, unfortunately, this mint Gretsch. I have to admit I was a little skeptical when I got this - large body, pick-ups, etc etc. But, and it's a big but, this bass sounds huge, balances beautifully, is very light and, with a short scale is solo easy to play.
