Description
Here we have a Limited Edition Quilt Classic Falcon from Gretsch! This Professional Collection model features a Forge Glow nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
Specs include a laminated quilt maple body, maple neck, ebony fingerboard, Grover Imperial tuners, Space Control bridge, pinned ebony base, Bigsby B6GVT vibrato tailpiece, and bone nut. It has a 25.5” scale length with 12” radius, 1.6875” nut width, Neo-Classic Thumbnail inlays, and 22 medium jumbo frets. The pickups are a set of TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Trons.
This is one of the coolest Gretsch limited runs we’ve seen! Clearly the quilted body and finish are stunning, but it’s also trimmed in ivoroid binding, and features a 2.75” deep body with 1959 trestle bracing. All of these little touches not only complement the look, but add up to one very nice playing and sounding instrument.
It is brand new and includes a hardshell case and paperwork. Tone Wolf is an Authorized Gretsch Guitars Dealer!
Pickups: A pair of TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Tron pickups gives this Falcon its voice. Individual neck and bridge volume controls, a master volume, and a three-position tone switch let you shape it from the guitar.
Bigsby Vibrato: The Bigsby B6GVT adds expressive pitch movement without taking over your playing. It’s paired with a Space Control bridge on a pinned ebony base.
Headstock and Tuners: A matching quilt maple headstock carries the body’s figured look through to the top of the guitar. Grover Imperial tuners complete the gold hardware.
Body and Finish: The 2.75-inch-deep laminated quilt maple body features 1959 trestle bracing. A gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish brings out the figuring in its Forge Glow color.
