The Gretsch 57 Duo Jet VS (Vintage Select) with Bigsby sports a Cadillac Green finish and gold plated hardware, reflecting 1957 design choices.

Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean 6119 Walnut, 1967

On January 25, 2023 /

Currently named the ‘Tennessee Rose’, the Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean 6119 first appeared in 1958, and for 1961 gained the closed, thin ElectroTone body. Chet Atkins had been urging Gretsch to take steps to reduce feedback on their hollow body designs, especially after Gibson introduced the center-block ES335 in 1958.

Gretsch Model 35 Archtop Guitar Sunburst, 1933

On October 21, 2021 /

The Gretsch Model 35 American Orchestra archtop guitar appeared in 1933 and was built until 1940, when it was replaced by the Synchromatic line and the model 30. The Model 35 features a solid carved Spruce top with small-size F holes. Maple is used for the sides and back, Flamed Maple for the neck and Ebony for the fingerboard and bridge. The Gretsch logo is a Banner style using an engraved pearlescent plastic – rather like a drum covering.

Gretsch White Penguin G6134 DynaSonic, 2004

On July 27, 2021 /

We don’t see these often! The Gretsch White Penguin is the ‘Jet’ bodied version of the classic White Falcon, and here carries DynaSonic pickups and a ‘Cadillac’ tailpiece! The Gretsch White Penguin was officially launched in 1956 as a follow-up to the successful White Falcon. The White Falcon itself was created literally as a one-off showpiece, bling for the 1955 Winter NAMM show. However, the buyers at that show saw the Falcon differently and immediately placed more than enough orders to require regular production.
