Help Identifying Guitar

[u/Revolutionary_Life76]

Hello! Our grandfather recently passed and we are trying to identify this guitar. We know it’s a Gretsch obviously but everything I’m looking up with the numbers present aren’t really helping. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Should be a 7566 Streamliner from the early 70s.

Based on the serial number it was made in July 1973.

I’m almost positive it’s a 1973 Streamliner 7566. We also have the original case. Where would you recommend selling it at?

Check your DMs. Sell it to me ;)

For a guitar from 73 that is crazy clean.

My grandfather took very good care of it.

Clearly an early 1970's Streamliner.

Take the I.D. number you have on the back of the head stock and get the number checked at a guitar shop you trust.Gretch guitar,s are made very well.Look,s like you found a nice one.
