$2,549.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 2000 Gretsch G6120 in near-mint condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case, CoA and hangtags. This finely crafted iteration of the classic Gretsch model features a 16” fully hollow maple body with sound post bracing and a gloss Western Orange Stain finish, upgraded with a pair of TV Jones Classic Filter’Tron pickups, TV Jones wiring harness, a Tru-Arc compensated rocking bar bridge, and a “Chet Atkins” pickguard.

The maple body construction and sound post bracing yields a full, percussive, and articulate voice when strummed acoustically that translates well through the upgraded TV Jones pickups. The undisputed king of golden age Gretsch tone, TV Jones humbuckers are made in the USA and seen on virtually all of Gretsch's upper tier and Custom Shop models. These "Classic" Filter'Trons offers clean, compressed trebles and mids over a tight, controlled low-end. Articulate and immediate in all pickup positions with both sparkle and punch, these TV Jones pickups are equally suited to complex chords voicings and sweet, singing leads. This G6120 weighs 8lbs 3oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
