2012 Gretsch Model G6136-LDS White Falcon White
Here's an original pre-owned 2012 Gretsch Model G6136T-LDS 1957 Style White lacquer White Falcon. Very clean with minor signs of wear. Comes with certificate and original hard case. Purchased directly from the original owner.
The 1957 features are recreated and even improved upon here in the new G6136T-LDS.
This is the top of the line DynaSonic Equipped Falcon currently offered by Gretsch. It recreates the look, sound, and feel of an original '57 but with modern dependability and durability.
The new recreation of the original DeArmond pickup which Gretsch calls the DynaSonic is an outstanding design that holds its own against a true vintage pickup. The tone is clear and strong with tremendous bass response that's very clean and musical and an articulate treble that's bright and snappy without a hint of "brittle" tone. The guitar is perfect for vintage style country western and rockabilly but is also well suited for many music styles. The gold plated bigsby with cast aluminum “spoon” handle and Synchrosonic "Melita" Bridge wrap up the package very nicely offering great playability and a classic look.
