About this listing
100% collector grade, mint condition, highly figured Hawaiian koa top Penguin. This run was a limited edition from 2021, and it's been in the case for the majority of its life, as evidenced by the plastic covering on the backplate covers! All original paperwork and assorted case candy included. From Gretsch's 2021 press release:This G6134T Limited Edition Penguin™ Koa with Bigsby® offers a tastefully elegant take on the rarest of Gretsch birds. The Penguin’s chambered mahogany body with arched figured koa top captures harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for livelier and more articulate tone, while a pair of TV Jones® TV Classic™ pickups beautifully project bright, twangy notes with a hint of growl similar to late-1950s Filter’Trons. The result is an extraordinary voice ideal for distinctive rock ‘n’ roll licks, chiming country rhythms or articulate rockabilly riffs. A three-position pickup toggle switch, individual pickup volume controls, master volume and three-position tone toggle switch open up endless tonal possibilities. Its premium features also include a set mahogany neck, 12”-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets, Bigsby B3 tailpiece, rocking bar bridge with pinned ebony base, Grover® Imperial™ tuners and bone nut. Richly appointed, this limited edition beauty is decked out in a Natural finish with matching figured koa headstock, tortoiseshell body and neck binding, mother of pearl Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, jeweled arrow control knobs, tortoise pickguard and gold hardware.
