NGD - G5259 Special Jet arrived!

[juks]

UPS annoyd me again, as this arrived in San Pablo CA (an hour away from my house) Monday 5pm but they held it there for 30 hours.

I just gave it a quick run to check everything works and I am a fan of these DeArmond pickups. They just sound absolutely great! And the neck shape luckily works with my busted left wrist. What a fun little guitar. Couple little dings but I don't think it's been played much as the frets are like new.

Serial number dates it to December 2004. So towards the end of the run.

GC even shipped it in a Gretsch box.

Sweet guitar. Is the switch tip a Gretsch metal one or plastic?
