Vintage Select Edition guitars from Gretsch are designed for the player who appreciates the finest in musical instrument heritage, inspired by the pivotal and prolific years of the brand's 1950s and early '60s golden age. The Gretsch G6128T-53 Vintage Select '53 Duo Jet with Bigsby Electric Guitar pays homage to that legacy with a finely crafted new take on one of Gretsch's first and dearest models, available in a sleek black finish.
The Duo Jet debuted in 1953 as Gretsch's flagship 'solid body' guitar, but its signature power and punch came from its chambered mahogany design, which magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for a livelier and more articulate tone. This original-era beauty retains that signature feature, along with special touches including the rare Gretsch 'script' headstock logo and dual TV Jones T-Armond pickups that keenly replicate the vintage DynaSonic sound.
The bundle includes the Gretsch G6128T-53 Vintage Select '53 Duo Jet 6-String Right-Hand Electric Guitar with Bigsby, as well as the Gretsch G9500 Jim Dandy 24-Inch Scale Flat Top 6-String Acoustic Guitar (Frontier Stain).
The Gretsch G6128T-53 Vintage Select '53 Duo Jet Electric Guitar features a chambered mahogany body, enhancing harmonic richness by allowing air to resonate between the top and body. The arched laminated maple top offers classic aesthetics and tonal clarity, capturing the essence of its 1950s and early '60s golden age. Players can enjoy classic vibrato effects with the Bigsby B3CCB tailpiece, adding expressive depth to their playing.
The pickups on the Gretsch G6128T-53 Vintage Select '53 Duo Jet electric guitar are the real highlight, as dual TV Jones T-Armond pickups provide the authentic vintage DynaSonic sound that made Gretsch guitars so iconic during their golden years. This guitar is a must-have for players who appreciate the finest in musical heritage and craftsmanship.
