Withdrawn - Gretsch G5129 2008 model - London - 395£

Bitten by the Gretsch bug and getting ready to upgrade to a pro line but this is the one that really made me like Gretsches.

I don’t need to have two Hollowbody Gretsch, though so selling this.

The DeArmonds are super nice and the year of production means that it is done right (as opposed to earlier tones that had issues with neck angles and f hole size ). 

condition is very good with no notable dings. Photos to follow but happy to send some of them via email till I get back to my desktop.


Collection near Westbourne Park Station or Kings cross most weekdays. Comes with decent padded gig bag.

    I love the 51 series - have had two 5129s on separate occasions and wish I still had one...
    Great guitar

    These are highly respected amongst Gretsch-o-philes. Pickups alone can go for up to £250 a set used.

    So sorry guys but some emergency babysitting and work resulted in me having totally forgot about this

    If anyone is genuinely interested shoot me a msg and can point you to some photos.

    Yes, red top, black back and sides.
