I built this recently as an homage to the Gretsch Corvette. I always liked the funky 2+4 headstock and cool body shape.
As an alternative to the Chinese-built ones of today, here is an all mahogany Made in the USA version!
Pickups are TV Jones Powertrons. 1 meg pots all round, Master Volume, neck pickup volume, bridge pickup volume and master tone.
Fretboard is bound ebony with medium jumbo frets and 12″ radius. Neck has a chunky profile, feels fat in your hand. Nut is bone.
Cut down Bigsby and a Towner tension bar. Bridge is a Wilkinson roller.
This is a rock machine!
I can build one to your specs, let me know!
