Gretsch G6120LH Chet Atkins - Vintage Orange Stain Left Handed *Used*

Chet Atkins legendary fingerpickin' country pioneered a kind of guitar playing that musicians all over the world are still trying to replicate today. His fast hands plucked in such a way that made his long-standing partnership with Gretsch inseparable. That iconic Orange hollow-body is one that every guitarist is familiar with, and it brings with it a truly iconic feel and tone.

This left-handed version retains all the style of its original mid-century counterpart thanks to the Orange Stain finish, gold hardware and pickguard, as well as the unmistakable dual High Sensitive FilterTron humbucker pickups. These timeless pickups recreate the incredible twang and brightness of single-coils but without unwanted hum. Tight, articulate and punchy, these pickups are ideally suited to the G6120's hollow body and amplifies its appealing acoustic characteristics.

Equipped with a gold Bigsby you can add smooth pitch-bending and a beautiful shimmer to your chords. This expressive warble is a staple in country, blues and good old fashioned rock 'n' roll, but make no mistake, this model sounds absolutely killer when pushed with a bit of gain too!

The Ebony fingerboard is finished with thumbnail inlays to complete the look.

An totally rocking guitar that deserves to be in anyone's collection.

This guitar is pre-owned as in overall very good condition. There are some very small marks on the rear tip of the headstock and a slight ding on the body. The hardware has been tarnished a little bit from play wear but this does not affect the playability of the guitar.
