Seige Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Selling with heavy heart, but it’s not getting any use. I’ve accepted that I’m more of a short scale player. Stunning black long scale Gretsch bass. The black version has been discontinued and is almost impossible to find. Sounds beautiful with the Filter’tron pickups and switching options. In built knurled strap locks. It’s been well looked after - has very minor rash on back that I’ve tried to get in a photo but it’s hardly noticeable. Also one tiny scuff on front which is again hardly noticeable but I’ve tried to get it in a photo. Here’s the official blurb: Gretsch G5440LSB Electromatic Hollow Body Long Scale Bass Guitar in Black. The G5440LS is the stylishly seismic new long scale bass guitar from Gretsch. The G5440LS is armed with two powerful new Black Top Filter’Tron bass pickups that endow it with an electrifying deep-end voice and identity.

AlwaysCurious Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I’ve recently been scouring the interwebs for one of these for sale and oh boy is this a relief. I am hoping that this is still open for sale, I see last post was April 8th though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
