This beauty is an easily recognizable classic. How wouldn't it be with its electroluminescent silver top? But its looks are not the only thing that matters...it sounds great as well. The Gretsch G6129 Silver Jet Electric Guitar has a crystal clear sound that never gets muddy in the lows. Most often it is described as a cross between a Les Paul and a Tele. Versatile enough to cover various types of music unlike most Gretsch guitars that are not known for their versatility, so many different sounds can be made by this guitar. Features include single cutaway body design, multiple-bound arched laminated top, semi-hollow mahogany body, one-piece mahogany neck, ebony fretboard, silver plexi pickguard, adjustable truss rod, two High Sensitive Filter'Tron pickups, space control bridge, and G-cutout tailpiece.
Generations of players have torn it up on stage and off with this respected rocker. Its unforgettable, beautiful appearance is only equaled by its hard-hitting capabilities. Great sustain and great feel. This is a fairly heavy guitar despite its semi-hollow body, and this model is also available with certain upgrades.
