Description

This elegant semi-hollow beauty is a rare find—a 1979 USA-made Gretsch Model 7690 "Super Chet" in a rich Walnut finish. Known for its striking gold-plated hardware, intricate abalone inlays, and those iconic five mini-controls right on the pickguard, this model made quite an impression when it was released in 1973. Not just a looker, it’s a fantastic player too, with a slim maple neck that feels smooth and comfortable in hand. Comes with a non-original hardshell case, ready to make an impression wherever it goes!

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
