Gretsch 6025 Bikini Double Neck

1961 usa double neck guitar and bass
maple necks on mahogany bodies that slide onto a butterfly hinged 3 piece guitar body...
one volume and tone per each neck body..ie bass and guitar
gretsch single coil hilotron pickups produce a cross between a gretsch tenessean rickenbacker 325 and telecaster sound
finish is black celulose...one of a kind style great fun as it folds away into a retangular velvert flush case made by ess and ess af broklyn new york
tuners are open back grovers
if you want a unique double neck fold up guitar with plenty of funk get one of these if you can find one only 35 made...around 10 double necks and 25 single necks....bass is great and versitile
what marks do i give it....well its definatly wacky love the sounds bass and guitar....pleasure factor....give it 9 or maybe 10 out of ten i do have more desirable gretschs but this has the wow factor

funky bass
and jangly guitar
here comes the 60s...funkadelic mixed with the brit pop years

action great....finish great....case there too...how can i compare this to manufacture build it as it has no other match...you build the guitar up which takes 3 minuites to do....sliding on the body necks...think gretsch marketing missed how revolutionary this portable guitar was and could of made something more of it...just look at the backpacker guitars of today or steinberger basses etc

it dependable guitar but i wouldnt go gigging with it only for the reason its rare and i couldnt replace it

ive delt with duke kramer who is sadly missed...i couldnt say how much i appreaciated his knowledge and providing me with parts for other gretsch guitar that i own ....

i have been playing over 20 years...i own lots of gretsch guitars and rock them as well as restoring ...
