Don Grosh Electrajet Custom 2010 Charcoal Frost Metallic



A 2010 Grosh Electrajet Custom, with original hard shell case. The finish is Charcoal Frost Metallic, which is kind of a dark blue/gray that can look different depending on lighting.

This guitar does show minor wear from use. There are a few dings (tiny headstock dings for example) and scratches that only go into the surface of the finish. Also, a little belt rash, but nothing major. See photos for details!

It is in very good condition and frets still should have at least several years of life in them.

Meh.

I played a Grosh once a couple of years ago. Nice playing, well-made guitar, but it didn't grab me and make me want to buy it.
 
That's the first zebra pickup that looks good to me. It must be because the black bobbin kinda gets lost in the tort guard.

I like the looks of that.
 
looks cool to me. i generally don't mind zebra pickups but the bridge bucker on that guitar just looks a little weird. maybe needs a cover or just two matching bobbins. i like the body shape and the specs. always liked that color on a guitar too.
 
Not a fan of Grosh's variation on the Tele or Strat, but they make my favorite Off-Set profile. For this I'd prefer a maple board and anything other than a tort guard, but I'd take this guitar as is without reservation, assuming it sounded good and expecting to play wonderfully.
