G6122T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman Hollow Body w/Bigsby
From Gretsch:
"Made famous by The Beatles' George Harrison, the 1962 Country Gentleman is the sound of rock 'n' roll.
The G6122T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Chet AtkinsĀ® Country GentlemanĀ® Hollow Body with BigsbyĀ® has the unmistakable sound and style that marked the beginning of a musical invasion. Sonically, this guitar is ready to tear it up with flexible tone that fits any musical situation.
A pair of TV JonesĀ® Classic pickups responds to every pick stroke or strum with refined, articulate tone. Traditional Gretsch controls - including per-pickup volume controls, master volume, a three-way tone switch - allow you to create countless tonal variations for a personalized tone. The new Gretsch "Squeezebox" capacitors deliver silky vintage high end. The standard "U"-shaped maple neck bears a 12"-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 frets and zero-fret for a memorable playing experience that works with any style. The sealed body with simulated F-holes minimizes feedback while providing for authentically vintage tone. A pinned "rocking" bar bridge reacts in concert with the Bigsby B6GVT vibrato tailpiece for stable tuning while the bone nut lets the strings slide freely without binding in the slots.
A true rock 'n' roll classic, this guitar features the appointments that made this guitar a legend - dual foam string mutes with red felt surrounds, standby switch, laminated 3-ply maple top, gold G-arrow control knobs, aged white binding with black purfling, gloss urethane finish, aged pearloid thumbnail inlays, gold vintage thick plexi pickguard with Gretsch logo and gold GroverĀ® Imperialā¢ tuning machines. A distinguished instrument from the earliest days of the British Invasion, the G6122T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Chet AtkinsĀ® Country GentlemanĀ® Hollow Body with BigsbyĀ® is the guitar that laid down the foundation of rock as we know it."
Walnut Stain, Gloss urethane finish, Hollow laminated Maple body with the simulated F holes and parallel tone bar bracing, Standard U shaped Maple neck, Bound 12ā radius Ebony fingerboard with the pearloid neo-classic thumbnail inlays and vintage small frets, 24.6ā scale length, 1.6875" nut width, TV Jones Filter'Tron Classic bridge and neck pickups, 3-way toggle switching with the master volume and a volume control for each pickup plus the 3-way toggle tone switch, Rocking bar bridge and a Bigsby B6G vibrato tailpiece, Split E/A/D and G/B/E string mutes, Grover Imperial tuners, 8.4 pounds, With hardshell case
