❌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 Country Club 6195 Archtop Electric Sunburst, 1960

On April 19, 2018 /

This 1960 model Gretsch Country Club, with the trestle braced thinner body. The serial number grouping indicates an early part of the year, though the dates are not certain. There is some uncertainty as to the model number, because the stamp on the label is very faded. At this point, the Country Club used the designation 619x, with the ‘x’ indicating the finish colour. The most common variations are 6192 (sunburst), 6193 (natural) and 6196 (Cadillac Green). We read the last digit of the label as a 5, which can mean a custom order.
