Get to know them!





The 6120 has a long, storied history as one of Gretsch's trailblazing hollowbody guitars that ended up in the hands of legends like Chet Atkins, Eddie Cochran, and Brian Setzer. The G6120TG-DS Players Edition Nashville with DynaSonics and Bigsby taps into that legendary look, sound, and playability while infusing modern updates to help bring this classic into the present. The G6120TG-DS features a classic arched maple body for wide-open, snappy tone that jumps to the front of the mix. The Bigsby B6GP vibrato tailpiece with string-through design provides that unmistakable twangy tremolo and sustain, in addition to making string changes a breeze. When you plug in, DynaSonic pickups deliver incredible power and tone, while top-shelf appointments round out this stunning homage to the glory days of early American music.

Legendary pickups deliver classic tone





The DynaSonic single-coil pickup first appeared in the 1940s as one of the earliest pickup designs to offer individually adjustable pole pieces, which allowed players to balance the output of each string and open new doors to subtle tone-shaping effects. A wide array of legendary players from rock 'n' roll and rockabilly to jazz and country fell in love with these unique pickups, and you will too! These DynaSonic single-coil pickups deliver shimmering highs along with killer bass response. These low-output pickups yield incredible definition even when driven at high volume, making them ideal for hard-hitting rock, blues, and rockabilly. They can also be dialed back for really pristine tone when you want to slide into jazz runs or fingerpick some tasty Chet Atkins-style country. You also get a 3-way toggle for pickup selection and combination, two volume controls, a master volume with treble bleed, and a master tone ? the tonal options are nearly endless!

True hollowbody tone without the feedback





The Gretsch custom bracing on this beauty ensures that the slim 2.5-inch body depth doesn't feed back while still maintaining that true hollowbody tone. Further, the smooth maple neck has been cut to a standard "U" profile for added comfort; the ebony fingerboard features 22 medium-jumbo frets that make leads and chords easy on the hand. A favorite among Sweetwater guitarists, the set neck joint yields a warm and full sound as well as enhanced sustain, making bends and bangers linger in the air longer.





Detailed classic appointments





From the vintage F-holes to the G-arrow control knobs, the G6120TG-DS Players Edition Nashville positively oozes classic, stage-ready appointments. A gold vintage Plexi pickguard with a Gretsch logo wows every time, and the gloss urethane finish allows the color on this stunner to shine. Finally, speaking of shine, vintage Schaller locking gold tuners look amazing while keeping you in tune.
