❌SOLD❌ Gretsch Nashville 6120DSW Archtop Electric Western Orange, 2003

On September 4, 2022 /

Based on early 1950’s models, the Gretsch Nashville 6120DSW 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.

❌SOLD❌ Gretsch G6134B Black Penguin, 2009

On January 5, 2022 /

Always tasteful, elegant and understated, the Gretsch G6134B Black Penguin is the top of the Gretsch line of chambered Jet models. The first Gretsch Penguin models appeared in 1956 as an adaptation of the Duo Jet to the aesthetics of the unexpectedly successful White Falcon. Before it was discontinued in 1964, only a few dozen were built. There were no Black Penguins built.

❌SOLD❌ 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.

❌SOLD❌Gretsch 6193 Country Club Archtop Electric Natural, 1956

On February 1, 2021 /

Here is a rarity – from 1956, a Gretsch 6193 Country Club in natural finish, with an added vintage Bigsby B6 and aluminum bridge set. The 6193 Country Club was introduced in 1954 as the top of the Gretsch line, but had previously appeared in 1951 as the Electro II Cutaway. The 6193 model number indicates the natural ‘blonde’ finish; the 6192 was sunburst and the 6196 Cadillac Green. This Gretsch 6193 is not in fully original condition, as the original G-cutout tailpiece and Melita bridge were removed long ago to make way for the Bigsby B6 set. The Bigsby’s string bar features thread-in string pins, used on 1950’s and early 1960’s models.

❌SOLD❌ Gretsch G8128TCG Duo Jet Cadillac Green Shopworn, 2014

On October 3, 2020 /

The Gretsch G8128TCG, now superseded by the G6128T-57 Vintage Select, reproduces the 1957 Duo Jet in Cadillac Green and with TV Jones T-Armond pickups. These guitars vividly evoke the sounds of the 50’s Gretsch models, with plenty of twang and power. We have only one of these.
