1950's Gretsch

Posts: 776 Threads: 132

22-13-16 in good shape from the 50's judging by the 3 ply shells. Wrap is tight and badges are intact. I picked this one up along with a 60's Rogers 20-13-16 with some mods and 3 Ludwig kits from the 60's to early 70's. My first day off in a long while so off i went to totally fill the truck up.

Keep fixing them up...

Rail was moved by a previous owner but the work is flawless. He plugged the tiny holes perfectly.
