In Depth | Gretsch G6119T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Tennessee Rose™ Hollow Body with Bigsby®, TV Jones®, Dark Cherry Stain + Case By any other name this guitar would still sound sweeter than honey. A throwback from the early era of rock 'n' roll, the G6119T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Tennessee Rose™ Hollow Body with Bigsby® is a solid performer with the sound and the style that have made Gretsch a household name. Highly resonant, the unique voice of this guitar cuts through any mix, standing out from the crowd with That Great Gretsch Sound!™ A pair of rich-sounding TV Jones® Hilo'Tron pickups creates broad tone with lively response, reflecting the natural voice of the guitar. Parallel tone bars provide authentic vintage tone. Traditional Gretsch controls - individual pickup volume controls, master volume, and the classic three-position tone switch - allow you to blend and shape the pickups' sound, creating countless tonal variations. With the new Gretsch "Squeezebox" capacitors, you get incredibly silky vintage high end. A pinned "rocking" bar bridge reacts in tandem with the Bigsby B6CVT vibrato tailpiece for stable tuning while the vintage-style bone nut lets the strings slide freely without binding in the slots. The standard "U"-shaped maple neck bears a 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets for a classic playing experience that works with any style. Designed for pure tone and slick, comfortable playing feel, this guitar features the classic aesthetics true Gretsch fans love - nickel G-arrow control knobs, aged white binding with black purfling, durable gloss urethane finish, aged pearloid thumbnail inlays, silver vintage thick plexi pickguard with Gretsch logo and nickel Grover® Sta-Tite™ tuning machines. A tastefully elegant instrument, inspired by one of guitar's greatest eras, the G6119T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Tennessee Rose™ Hollow Body with Bigsby® is an inspiring guitar that's ready to go at any time.
