*sold* Gretsch G2220 Junior Jet Bass II £225 Yeovil, Somerset

[Woodinblack]

Gretsch G2220 Junior Jet Bass II  in black. The little short scale one that doesn't weigh much, like the guy from Royal Blood plays (but in black).

Complete with a Gretsch gig bag.

This is in reasonably good condition, couldn't see any major dings or scratches. I have gigged it once and taken it along as a backup to other gigs. Originally it had a squeeky pickup switch but that has been replaced for a decent one.

Good basic tone, nice and easy to play with the short scale, as mentioned I have taken it along as a backup but sadly it really isn't getting played because I have the hohner as a backup and that has 5 strings. I really am not playing 4 strings at the moment, and I have a jazz bass in case I ever need to (and I will probably sell that too).

Can be picked up from Yeovil, or delivered reasonable distances, or happy to meet up somewhere. Don't want trades, just cutting down on numbers. Could post it if you really want, although not out of the country.

How would you describe the neck profile?

[Woodinblack]

Kind of hard to name it really. It is quite narrow as it is a 4 (and I have mostly 5s) - it is a bit wider than a thunderbird or 4 string ibanez and as deep as the thunderbird (ie, deeper than the ibanez).  I guess it is closest to a jazz.

For me it feels deeper than I am used to but not much, but combined with the 4 stringness it doesn't seem over deep.

I took a photo but without knowledge of the size of my hand it didn't show much. What sort of thing are you used to.

Thanks for the info, I guess I’m asking whether it would suit someone with smaller hands 

[Woodinblack]

Oh yes, it is certainly smaller person friendly, in the photo I took my hand went right round it:
