Gretsch G6120T-BSSMK Brian Setzer Signature Nashville Hollow Body '59 "Smoke" with Bigsby - Smoke Orange
Here we have a brand new Gretsch G6120T-BSSMK Brian Setzer Signature Nashville Hollow Body '59 "Smoke" with Bigsby in Smoke Orange! This is a factory-fresh instrument handcrafted in Japan — and it's one of the most compelling signature guitars Gretsch has ever put out.
Brian Setzer doesn't need much introduction. From spearheading the rockabilly revival with the Stray Cats to jump-starting Big Band Swing with the Brian Setzer Orchestra, he's one of the most exciting and accomplished guitarists of his generation — three Grammy Awards, over 13 million records sold, and the Orville H. Gibson Lifetime Achievement Award to prove it. "Smoke" is a recreation of his main stage guitar since retiring the famed 'Stray Cat,' and it's a painstaking homage to one of his most treasured instruments. The Smoke Orange semi-gloss lacquer finish is a rich, period-correct look that captures the vintage '59 vibe perfectly, while the rolled fingerboard and body edges give it that broken-in feel found only in the prized G6120s from the 1950s.
Beneath the vintage exterior, Smoke is a true modern workhorse. The single-cutaway hollow body has an arched laminated maple top with 1959 trestle bracing and oversized F-holes for improved sonic projection — this is a guitar built to be heard. It's loaded with a pair of TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity pickups that deliver timeless tone with excellent bass response and shimmering Filter'Tron sparkle. The maple neck has a 9.5"-12" compound radius ebony fingerboard and a vintage 'V' neck shape that works equally well for comfortable chording or lightning-fast leads.
This one weighs 7lbs 4oz. The neck measures .820 to .920 at the 1st and 10th frets. For complete roadworthy stability, Smoke is equipped with an Adjusto-Matic bridge on a pinned rosewood base, a Bigsby B6CGH vibrato tailpiece, a Delrin nut, and Gotoh locking tuning machines. Period-correct details abound — the '59 headstock shape and logo, pickguard shape and bracket, volume, tone and switch locations — all contributing to an instrument that looks and feels like a genuine piece of rock 'n' roll history.
It ships brand new in its original Gretsch packaging with a hardshell case and all factory documentation. A remarkable signature guitar that honors one of the greatest rockabilly guitarists of all time.
