View Full DescriptionA beautifully chambered body
They say that beauty is only skin deep. Well, with the Gretsch G6128T 89 VS Duo Jet, this is not the case. The exquisite, dark finish is a handsome mask hiding the intricacy and innovation that lies within. Boasting a modern chambering rout design, the G6128T is superbly light and easy to hold. Never experience any of that dreaded shoulder pain when you're holding this guitar, its scrupulously considered chambers will ensure you are granted a dreamy playing experience from start to finish. The beauty of this modern chambering style is its ability to combine lightweight construction with the gorgeous tonal characteristics of a solid body. Experience incredible sound projection without the feedback usually produced by fully chambered guitars and immerse yourself in stunning sustain.
Iconic sound
Achieve a tone that is unmistakably you but with a glorious vintage undercurrent. Equipped at the neck position is a TV Jones TV Classic pickup. It is wonderfully refined and responds brilliantly to every nuance of sound with a '50s feel. Its tone resides between the sweet brightness of a single coil and the fatter sound of a humbucker, giving you wondrously unique sonic characteristics with clean, glassy trebles and tight lows. The TV Classic Plus pickup loaded at the bridge takes your sound one step further, propelling it forward with immense punch. Designed with a thinner wire gauge, this pickup offers a rounder high end and more pronounced mids with plenty of bite.
Innovation is key when it comes to Gretsch. And this guitar is no different. Designed with a treble-bleed circuit, the G6128T gives you magnificent tonal and dynamic ranges. Finally, you don't have to sacrifice sonic brilliance for the sake of volume. Achieve sparkling definition when your volume is cranked up, and better still, let those high frequencies shine through even when the volume is turned down. You don't have to settle for a dense, muddy sound anymore. Experience the stunning qualities of every single frequency.
Incredible tuning stability
A bridge with endless wonder... the Adjustomatic. Experience gloriously precise intonation that is made possible by individually adjustable string saddles. It offers amazing sturdiness so you can play confidently knowing every string will stay firmly in tune. A rosewood base then enhances your tone with the perfect balance of complex resonance and sparkling brightness. When you're going wild with the Bigsby B3 vibrato, the bridge gently rocks to alleviate any friction whilst still retaining its unwavering tuning stability.
Mesmerising aesthetic, sublime quality
One look at this magical instrument and you're bound to be captivated. Hear its wondrous tone and you'll be enchanted. This commanding guitar showcases Gretsch's renowned quality that has carried them for over 100 years. With a robust build, smooth playability, and an iconic Bigsby vibrato, you can achieve that legendary Gretsch tone. And still put your own spin on it. Built with meticulous, passionate craftsmanship, the G6128T is the epitome of Gretsch excellence.
