This black on black Don Grosh 'Gilmour' NOS Retro is as incredible as David Gilmour's famous Black Strat without being the Black Strat itself - and with the Grosh name on it, you know it's gonna be good. Eric M. here at the store ordered this with Gilmour on the brain. Constructed with a solid Alder body with 3-ply gloss black pickguard, Maple neck and fingerboard with black dots, three aged white single-coil pickups (Grosh 60s Fat in the neck and middle, with a 60s X-Fat/10% overwound at the bridge), strat-style aged white knobs, and a shortened tremolo bar with aged white tip - what you've got nearly inch-for-inch, is a spectacular homage to one of rock's most prolific and important guitarists, by one of the best electric luthiers in the country.
It looks like the legendary guitar, and it sounds amazing! Check out our own Eric M. blast through a snippet of the solo on Dark Side of the Moon's "Time" here with the Gilmour Grosh guitar. This Grosh offers all the versatility and renowned resonance of the Grosh NOS with an aesthetic nod to the famed Pink Floyd guitarist's favorite workhorse. It doesn't get much more sick than this. Also features a 1 11/16" nut width, 22 medium frets, a 25.5" scale, 10" radius, a Gotoh 510 vintage 6-screw tremolo bridge, and a 5-way toggle switch, plus both a regular and a Gilmour style shortened trem bar. Original hardshell case and setup to your specs is also included with this Grosh NOS Retro.
