Collector grade Gretsch TK300 in Cherry with original lime interior Gretsch marked case.

Also includes original case key and case candy buyers card.

These offset guitars are incredible!

All maple with great sounding Gretsch humbuckers. Neck is perfect, frets are excellent. Some swirling and minor marks but no deep scratches, dings or dents of any particular note. In the more desired cherry transparent finish.

Case has typical scuffs but looks and functions perfectly. Case pocket leather pull is tore off (long ago) but is included with the case key and sales placard. The brass hook is intact and works perfect.

You do not find these in this condition - and it plays and sounds incredible. Fantastic standard playing and slide guitar as well.

If you are looking for a beater, this ain't it - this is a pristine example of a very rare and unique American made guitar.

Some of the late Baldwin-era solidbody Gretsches look a little funky to me. The price they're asking is maybe a tad high, but it still might be a fun guitar to have.
 
I guess it's not a bad price for a collectable guitar, but I sure wouldn't want it. To me, it just looks like the original designer said, "How can I make everything angled weirdly." It definitely stands out, but in my mind, not in a good way.
 
You know that in between Sarah Jessica Parker before she got to horsey looking? Where you weren't sure if you wanted to hit it or not.

Yepp, that explains it.
