The first time we saw George Harrison with his all rosewood Telecaster with that black pickguard and chrome parts in the Let It Be film it became clear that there was a new number one at the top of the must have list. One day last year when I was watching an early Beatle video with George playing his '57 Duo Jet and realizing how great that sounded I quickly knew what the "Master" Stephen Stern should build next. Let's combine the two and finish it off with some upgraded Penguin features.  The all rosewood construction finished off with tortoise style binding and winged vertical Gretsch headstock logo make this such a wonderful creation.
