About This Listing

This cool vintage Gretsch Super Chet from 1972 is up for grabs here. As one of the most influential blues guitarists of all time, Chet Atkins shaped the Nashville sound with his incredible skills and unique style, but to do that, he needed a guitar that could keep up with a musician of that caliber. This Super Chet is a phenomenal example of such an instrument, boasting a number of features that cater to the professional gigging musician, including a thin, comfortable neck that allows anyone to effortlessly navigate the fretboard, as well as a fantastic quality that gives a glimpse into the love and care that was put into every instrument back in this day. The controls are all on the pickguard to more quickly dial in a tone while playing, and the real abalone inlays perfectly compliment tje beautiful autumn red finish of this guitar.

Features:

- Thin neck

- Controls are on the pickguard

- Thick semi-hollow body

- 8lbs 15oz

- Original hardshell case

- Real abalone inlays

- Made in USA

It's got the usual dings, scratches, and checking from a guitar over fifty years old, as well as some wear in the bottom left corner of the headstock on the backplate, but it's still in very good condition and is looking to find the next stop on its journey!
