Description

The Gretsch Chet Atkins Country Gentleman 6122 was first introduced in 1957. This 1960 model features a beautiful Walnut finish and a single cutaway body made of laminated maple.

The guitar is equipped with a pair of "Filter'Tron" humbucking pickups, which provide a clear and balanced sound that is well-suited to jazz, country, and rockabilly music. The unique tone switch allows players to adjust the sound of the pickups to suit their playing style.

This particular guitar has a rebound fingerboard, has been refretted, and has a replaced nut, truss rod cover, bridge, and Bigsby. It also has a repaired headstock with finish touch up and it's fingerboard has been planed down. Overall it is in great shape and sounds amazing, and comes with it's original hard case.
