As previously mentioned, I am the original owner of this guitar. I bought it new in 2011, and have played it little. It has spent practically all of its sheltered life in the case. I am not a partyer. I played the guitar alone at home. I am a widower and a non-smoker, and my home is smoke free. I bought the guitar from one of the leading guitar stores in the USA while living in northern Arkansas, and recently brought it with me to my new home in Texas. I am selling it because I am aging and need the money for medical bills.  If you are shopping for this level of guitar, then you need no introduction to Gretsch. This is a 2011 Gretsch White Falcon, Model G6316T, made in Japan for the US market. I am including lots of pictures. They say more than I can say in words. You can find info on the features and price of this model online at the aforementioned leading guitar store (just Google it). I will pay for shipping and insurance, so you can concentrate on the value of your purchase. Bidding starts at $1000. Bidders will set the final price. The guitar will be shipped in its case, in the original boxes in which it was shipped to me (see the pictures).  It will be securely double boxed. I can ship UPS or FEDEX. If you have a preference, please let me know. Otherwise, I will choose.  In ten days, someone else will own this guitar of a lifetime. It might as well be you.
