A Near Mint and Totally Original Thinline Double-Cutaway 1964 Gretsch 6120.
Exceptionally clean and totally original, this fifty year old guitar weighs just 7.90 lbs. Double cutaway thinline laminated maple body. Three-piece maple and ebony neck with a medium profile, ebony fretboard with pearl half-moon position markers. Two Filter'Tron pickups with outputs of 4.08k and 4.02k. Bar bridge / Bigsby Vibrato tailpiece. All hardware gold plated. The Western orange color bright and fresh - a wonderful example. Original "Cowboy" white Tolex hardshell case. In 1962 the company introduced its Electrontone hollowbody design, a two-inch-deep, 15 1/2 inch-wide double cutaway body with replica, not real, f-holes painted on the guitar. So, the Model had been converted from a true f-hole, single cutaway, hollow guitar to a simulated f-hole, double cutaway, semi-hollow instrument". John Lennon used exactly the same model (a 1962 guitar) during the 'Paperback Writer' sessions at Abbey Road Studios in April 1966. (00620)
