1965 Gretsch Tennessean 6119 Electric Guitar Signed by Chet Atkins C.G.P.
This is a 1965 Gretsch 6119 Tennessean signed by Chet Atkins C.G.P. The previous owner attended the C.A.A.S in the 90's and had Chet sign it. The pictures are of Chet signing the guitar and from the performance that day. The pictures will be included. Also included (not pictured) will be the previous owners name tag from the C.A.A.S.
The guitar itself is in excellent condition with very few signs of wear. In 2014 the guitar was taken to a luthier to glue the binding, refret and setup the guitar. The guitar has been stored since that time. When I received it, I restrung it and the guitar was ready to go. It plays wonderfully as the refret was done extremely well. All of the original electronics function as they should as the guitar sounds like...well, Chet. The guitar will ship in its original Gretsch hardshell case. The case is in excellent structural condition with all latches working, but does show some signs of wear. Not bad at all, really.
The only non-original item is the tuners. It has Grovers currently installed, and the originals are nowhere to be found.
Chet's signature is one thing, but to have it on a wonderful example of his signature guitar that is actually a heck of a player, is another!!
Thanks, and please let me know if you have any questions..
