This is a truly special 2013 Gretsch G6122-1959 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman in Walnut Stain, custom ordered for the legendary John Sebastian. This exceptional instrument features a stunning highly flamed maple top and back, premium craftsmanship, and TV Jones pickups voiced in the classic Gretsch style for the unmistakable chime, clarity, and warmth these guitars are celebrated for. This is not only a remarkable playing instrument but also an outstanding piece of music history. Included is a handwritten letter from John Sebastian on his personal stationery, describing how he received the guitar from Gretsch and where he used it, providing exceptional provenance and a direct connection to one of America's most beloved musicians. It also includes the original Gretsch hardshell case, hand-painted by John with the name "George" as a heartfelt tribute to his musical hero, George Harrison, whose affinity for Gretsch Country Gentleman guitars helped make the model iconic. Whether you're a collector, Gretsch enthusiast, or fan of John Sebastian and The Lovin' Spoonful, this is a rare opportunity to own a custom-built instrument with documented provenance and a unique personal touch from its original owner.
