Gretsch G6128T-53 Vintage Select – 53 Duo Jet Electric Guitar with Bigsby and Hardshell Case

Description

Inspired by the pivotal and prolific years of Gretsch’s 1950s and early ’60s golden age, Vintage Select Edition guitars are designed for the player who appreciates the finest in musical instrument heritage. The G6128T-53 Vintage Select ’53 Duo Jet™ with Bigsby® rocks that legacy with a finely crafted new take on one of Gretsch’s first and dearest models. The Duo Jet debuted in 1953 as Gretsch’s flagship “solid body” guitar, although its signature power and punch came from its chambered mahogany design, which magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for livelier and more articulate tone. That’s all here on this original-era beauty, along with special touches including the rare Gretsch “script” headstock logo and dual TV Jones® T-Armond™ pickups that keenly replicate the vintage DynaSonic™ sound. Includes G6238 Gretsch® Deluxe Solid Body Hardshell and certificate of authentic.  Neck•    Neck Material: Mahogany•    Neck Finish: Gloss Urethane•    Neck Shape: Standard “U”•    Fingerboard Radius: j12″ (305 mm)•    Fingerboard Material: Rosewood•    Position Inlays: Aged Pearloid Blocks•    Number of Frets: 22•    String Nut: Bone•    Nut Width: 1.6875″ (42.86 mm)•    Nut Material: Bone•    Fret Size: Medium Jumbo•    Scale Length: 24.6″ (625 mm) Body•    Body: Mahogany•    Body Finish: Gloss•    Body Shape: Jet™•    Body Top: Arched Laminated Maple•    Body Binding: Aged White•    Body Back: Mahogany•    Body Style: Gretsch® Chambered Body Guitars•    Body Material: Mahogany•    Cutaway: Single Cutaway•    Bracing: Chambered•    Waist: 8.625” (219.08 mm)Hardware•    Bridge: Aluminum Compensated•    Bridge Cover/Tailpiece: Bigsby B3CCB•    Bridge Mounting: Pinned•    Pickguard: 1-Ply Vintage White•    Control Knobs: Plain•    Hardware Finish: Nickel•    Tuning Machines: Grover® Sta-Tite™ Die-Cast•    Strings: Nickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)•    Neck Plate: NA•    Strap Buttons: Gretsch® Knurled Strap Retainer KnobsElectronics •    Bridge Pickup: TV Jones® T-Armond™•    Neck Pickup: TV Jones® T-Armond™•    Pickup Configuration: TV Jones® / TV Jones®•    Controls: Volume 1.
