About this listing
I purchased this fantastic Gretsch on July 12, 2022 from Fullers Guitars. Since I've owned it it has been played 3 times, never gigged. It has lived in my smoke free home the whole time and has never left the building. I purchased a dream vintage guitar and its time to thin the herd. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have! Gretsch G6199TW Billy-Bo Jupiter Thunderbird (Fuller's Exclusive) Western OrangePhotos shown are stock photos.Serial Number JT22010423 weighs 7 lbs 6 ozRock luminaries Billy F Gibbons and Bo Diddley have joined forces to bring you a 21st-century version of the elusive Gretsch® Jupiter Thunderbird now dubbed the Billy-Bo which was designed in '59 by the talented Bo Diddley himself!"Some time ago, Bo gave me the guitar as a gift. It was during the recent ZZ Top recordings, when the engineering crew and I snaked through the guitar vault searching for that certain-something guitar, and there it was! We didn't risk subjecting such a rare instrument to the rigors of the road. So this new reproduction model was recreated with some BFG mojo thrown in for good measure. It's now the main stage guitar with a groove." - Billy F Gibbons.This is a Gretsch Special Run of 16 guitars in the Western Orange color scheme made exclusively for Fuller's Guitar in 2022.
