About this listing
Malcolm Young’s fiery rock ‘n’ roll spirit lives on through AC/DC’s enduringly timeless music, and it is Gretsch’s great privilege to pay tribute to the groundbreaking rhythm guitarist with the all-new G6131G-MY-RB Limited Malcolm Young Signature Jet™ in Vintage Firebird Red.Nicknamed “The Beast,” Young used this Firebird Red iteration of the guitar in early AC/DC performances and music videos including “It’s a Long Way to The Top,” before eventually making his own mods and stripping the paint job.To recreate Young’s earliest days with the instrument, the G6131G-MY-RB signature model comes equipped with TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Tron bridge and neck pickups that replicate the unmistakable vintage Gretsch voicing, along with an added TV Jones Starwood humbucker in the middle for clear and punchy tone.Built to rattle foundations in true Malcolm fashion, the G6131G-MY-RB Limited Malcolm Young Signature Jet also features a lightly aged finish, 12”-radius bound ebony fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets (plus zero fret), aged pearloid Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, bone nut, harmonica-style Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with pinned ebony base, ‘60s Jet vibrato tailpiece, Schaller® die-cast tuners, black pickguard, G-arrow control knobs and aged gold hardware.Features:2”-deep double-cutaway chambered mahogany body with maple topTV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity bridge, TV Jones® Starwood humbucker middle and TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity neck pickupsIndividual pickup volume controls, master volume, three-position pickup toggle switch, three-position tone switch and three-position standby switchHarmonica-style Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with pinned ebony baseAvailable in an aged Vintage Firebird Red finish with black pickguard and aged gold hardwareSpecs:Series: Artist Signature EditionOrientation: Right-HandColor: Vintage Firebird RedCountry Of Origin: JPHeadstock Binding: Aged WhiteNeck Material: MahoganyNeck Finish: Semi-Gloss LacquerNeck Shape: Standard "U"Neck Construction: Set-NeckFingerboard Radius: 12" (305 mm)Fingerboard Material: EbonyPosition Inlays: Aged Pearloid Neo-Classic™ ThumbnailSide Dots: RedNumber of Frets: 22 (Plus Zero Fret)String Nut: BoneNut Width: 1.6875" (42.86 mm)Nut Material: BoneBody: Mahogany with Arched Maple TopBody Finish: Semi-Gloss LacquerBody Shape: Jet™Body Top: Arched Laminated MapleBody Binding: Aged White with B/W/B PurflingBody Back: MahoganyBody Style: Gretsch® Solid Body GuitarsBody Material: Mahogany with Arched Maple TopCutaway: Double CutawayBracing: ChamberedWaist: 8.625" (219.08 mm)Bridge: Harmonica Style Adjusto-Matic™Bridge Cover/Tailpiece: Gretsch® '60s Jet VibratoBridge Mounting: PinnedPickguard: Black Plexi Pickguard with White Gretsch® LogoControl Knobs: G-ArrowHardware Finish: GoldTuning Machines: Schaller® DiecastStrings: Nickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)Strap Buttons: StandardBridge Pickup: TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-FidelityMiddle Pickup: TV Jones® Starwood HumbuckerNeck Pickup: TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-FidelityPickup Configuration: HHHControls: Volume 1.
