Throw in a classic hollow body, Filtertron pickups, lots of maple, 1950s rhythm and blues feel, vintage-styled hardware and you`ve got yourself the Gretsch recipe. Now, if it was really that simple, everyone could know how to replicate it. Some of the key ingredients of these guitars are unmatched skill level and passion f Gretsch luthiers. G6120AM is one of the text book examples of that claim. Hollow single-cut body is made of plain maple back and sides and flame maple top. Natural color of the wood is the only color option for this Chet Atkins tribute six-stringer. On top of the body, Gretsch installs a three-piece bridge section with Bigsby vibrato and Filtertron humbuckers. Set in maple neck has a 22-fret ebony fingerboard on top. Gold-plated Grover tuners are featured on the headstock.
