orange. The
double cutaway "Electrotone" version of the 6120 was
introduced in late 1961, so this guitar belongs to the first year of
production. Perfect and 100% original conditions. Just some
gold-plating wear on tuner buttons and pickup covers, very light
finish checking, otherwise a mint condition guitar!
The hollow maple body has fake f-holes, and features a totally new
circuitry with the stand-by switch. Classic Gretsch electronics with
individual and master volume controls plus tone and pickup selector
switches. Another knob controls the lever-operated mute. The clear
plastic gold pickguard still features the Chet Atkins signature but
with no "signpost logo". On the back you can see the
back-pad hiding the cover of the access to the electronics and mute
levers. This version still has the nice horseshoe headstock inlay, the
G-arrow knobs, two killer-sounding FilterTron pickups, an easy-playing
ebony fingerboard with thumbprint inlays, the zero-fret, the classic
straight-bar bridge, the renforcement neck dowel and the
Gretsch-by-Bigsby V-cutout vibrato tailpiece.
Absolutely NO dings, no buckle wear, no binding problems, no color
fading, mild flames on headstock and neck maple woods: simply
exceptional!! Great musical value, great collectible guitar in unreal
conditions.
It comes with the
beautiful original hardshell case
