This stunning Gretsch G6120DE, featuring a Desert Sunrise finish, is the perfect signature guitar for rock 'n' roll icon Duane Eddy. Get your hands on a big hollow-body today!
Often referred to as "The King of Twang", Duane Eddy had a string of hits through the 1950s and early 1960s, many of which features the incredible tones of his own 1957 Gretsch G6120 archtop.
With the G6120DE you get the look, feel, tone, and style of this classic guitar, with the Bigsby vibrato adding the finishing touches to its unmistakeably authentic feel.
For this guitar Gretsch set out to deliver as much of the feel and style of Eddy's original model as was possible.
Featuring a 3-piece maple neck - with the exact same profile and headstock as the original - and a bound Rosewood fingerboard, this guitar gives you an incredibly smooth feel whatever speed you play at.
For that unmistakeable Duane Eddy twang Gretsch have equipped this guitar with a pair of DynaSonic Single Coil pickups.
Inspired by the late '40s Gretsch DeArmond Fidelatone single coil - the pickups which defined generations of early rock n' roll, rockabilly, jazz and more - these awesome pickups deliver a distinct vibe that's instantly recognisable to anyone familiar with Eddy's work.
A truly unique addition to the Gretsch G6120DE guitar is the custom Bigsby B6CBDE tailpiece and a Modern Tru-Arc bridge, for a unique vibrato action.
This tailpiece comes complete with a Duane Eddy-style "DE" handle and extra-long string-retainer pins, making those long and subtle pitch bends a breeze.
