Gretsch 7690 “Super Chet”

Gretsch 7690 “Super Chet”. Used but in good condition.

The Gretsch 7690 was launched in 1972 and produced until 1980 – Designed to mimic the styling of other classic arch tops from rivaling companies, the Super Chet sports a 2,5″ deep, 17″ wide hollow maple body with white-bound f-holes and beautiful “fleur-de-lis”-inspired ornamentation throughout.

The Super Chet came with the electronics mounted directly to the pickguard for easy access. The two Filter’Trons each have their own volume and tone controls, with a master volume located separately on the pickguard.
