Reduced! Gretsch 6120DSW Nashville Archtop Electric, Orange 2003

On September 21, 2020 /

The Gretsch 6120DSW Nashville reproduces the 1955 6120 models whose popularity was led by Chet Atkins. These are named Nashville because the license agreement with Atkins lapsed in 1980 with the end of Gretsch production. Atkins signed a new agreement with Gibson in 1981, and in 2007 Gretsch was able to renew the relationship. The Gretsch 6120DSW Nashville model, with a few changes – primarily the Chet pickguard, Gold Bigsby with vintage handle, aluminum vs brass nut and pickups by TV Jones rather than Seymour Duncan – is now called the G6120T-55 Vintage Select Edition ’55 Chet Atkins®. The core of the guitar and other hardware are the same.

The Gretsch G6120DSW TV replicates the 1955 and 1956 6120 models, with a lot of typical Gretsch Western motif trim and Western Orange Stain lacquer finish. The very first Gretsch 6120 models were derived from a special order 1954 Streamliner Special, and presented to Chet Atkins as a potential signature model. This guitar featured a 16 inch single cutaway Maple laminate hollow body, and a second DeArmond DynaSonic bridge pickup as the Streamliner had only one pickup

❌SOLD❌ Gretsch G6120 DSW Archtop Electric Guitar Orange, 2009

On May 29, 2019 /

Based on early 1950’s models, the Gretsch G6120 DSW Chet Atkins model is probably the iconic Gretsch with its G brand in the top and ‘Western’ motif inlays. A fully hollow guitar with tone bars and a soundpost for support, the DSW designation indicates that Dyna Sonic pickups are installed, and the Western decorations are used. The Gretsch 6120 was very popular and influential after its prototypes were presented in 1954 to Chet Atkins, then a rising and very respected guitarist, session player and producer.

❌SOLD❌ Gretsch 6120 Double Cutaway Thinline Electric, Orange 1962

On April 2, 2019 /

In 1962, the Gretsch 6120 Double Cutaway model appeared, displacing the classic but aging single-cutaway deep body 6120 and bearing the new, sealed Electrotone body. This closed body first appeared on the 1961 Tennessean.The new double cutaway version came about through a number of influences. In particular, Gibson hand introduced their very successful ES-335 models, and Chet Atkins felt the Electrotone body worked better at stage volumes.
