Gretsch G6128DS Solid Body Electric Guitar - Black
The Gretsch G6128DS Duo Jet is a part of the Gretsch Solid Body professional collection/custom edition range of instruments made in their Japanese facility.
A stunning instrument from Gretsch. The Duo Jet features a chambered Mahogany body which gives the guitar greatly reduced weight and is surprisingly light for a Les Paul sized instrument. Tone wise the guitar has a vintage holllow body vibe with loads of resonance. This is capped off with the excellent Gretsch DynaSonic single coil pick ups for plenty of sparkle.
Information from Gretsch
The G6128DS features a semi-hollow mahogany body with a one-piece mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard with vintage hump block "Alamo" inlays, dual Gretsch DynaSonic™ single-coil pickups, "rocking" bar bridge, and G-cutout tailpiece. Finished in walnut stain with Jet Black top.
Gretsch DynaSonic Pick Ups
"DynaSonic Pickups Yield a Tone of Incomparable Power and Fidelity!"
Originally known as the Gretsch-DeArmond Fidelatone, the DynaSonic single-coil pickup has been a Gretsch standard since the late '40s. Being one of the first pickups to offer individually adjustable pole-pieces, DynaSonic pickups feature shimmering highs and a rich, full bass response.
