The Country Gentleman comes from the mind of Chet Atkins and the Gretsch design team to produce a wonderful semi-hollow body electric. This guitar has lived in the hands of country greats and rock legends as a guitar that helps shape the sounds of generations and bends genres. The pickups sound incredible when pushed through an amp, but they shine and clear up when playing a cleaner style. This guitar is in very good condition. Main modifications being some binding reglue and a good cleaning of the electronics. This guitar was previously owned by a Reverend who stored some hymn charts and lyric sheets in the neck pocket that have obviously been with the guitar for most of its life.
