Here’s a 2012 Gretsch G6122 1959 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman, in terrific condition. Beautiful walnut stain, a wonderful full sized guitar. Gretsch no longer offers these guitars lefthanded, so here’s your chance to grab one. With original hardshell case and paperwork. Gretsch’s description:
Inspired by Chet Atkins, this Country Gentleman is more than able to keep up with the most fleet-fingered guitarist. Packed with the sound, style and features that made the original a legend, the ’59 Gent provides highly responsive, amazingly articulate sound. A pair of TV Jones® pickups—a Super’Tron Classic Plus bridge pickup and Super’Tron neck pickup—responds to every stroke with defined, eloquent tone. The standard “U”-shaped maple neck with 1.75” nut bears a 12”-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 vintage-style small frets and is a picker’s dream. A pinned rocking bar bridge works with the Bigsby® tailpiece for stable tuning. All of the ’59 Gent’s classic features are here—laminated 5-ply figured maple top with painted F-holes, G-arrow control knobs, aged white binding with black purfling, gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, aged pearloid thumbnail inlays, gold vintage thick plexi pickguard with Gretsch logo and Grover® Imperial™ tuning machines with ‘butterbean’ buttons. A truly classic instrument with refined style and sound, the G6122-59 Chet Atkins® Country Gentleman® Hollow Body with Bigsby® is a fine addition to any guitarist’s collection
