Information from Gretsch
Gassed-up and ready to go! That's the skinny on the new G6118T-LTV Anniversary guitar, because we've taken this baby to the outer limits and with mods that include TV Jones Classic pickups, pinned Adjusto-Matic bridge assembly, trestle bracing, and a vintage two-tone smoke green lacquer finish that will have you begging to take a test drive.
TV Jones Pick Ups
This guitar is equipped with TV Jones Classic Pick ups. Made in the USA to exacting specifications, the TV Jones Classics are reproduced to the spec of the original 1950's Alnico magnets. All the vintage "Twang and Growl" we've come to know and love is reproduced lovingly....coupled with a Gretsch guitar....it's a perfect marriage.
The TV Classics are the company's best selling pick up and is a great choice for rockabilly, blues, and straight-up rock. The pick ups are wax potted to reduce microphonic feedback.
