1979 Gretsch 7576 Country Club
This example is nearly flawless. It’s 100% original and beautifully set-up and, with the exception of some worn-away gold plating and a small check in the plywood of the back, we’d call it ‘mint.’ The neck has a fast feel with a low carve and a nut width of 1-11/16. Scale length is 25.4”.
Maple laminate body with gloss finish, bound soundholes, mulit-ply body bindings throughout, translucent grey pickguard, adjustable bridge, Rotomatic tuners.
It’s a fun guitar to play, and sounds warm and jazzy, with a powerful Filter’Tron tonality. That said, if you’re Rancid founding member Tim Armstrong you’ll likely get a slightly different kind of tone from your Country Club… Pickup DC values are 7.7 and 7.8k, which is significantly hotter than earlier Filter’Tron pickups
In the case pocket you’ll find the original hang tags and Gretsch quality control card, with matching serial number.
With original hardshell case
