Gretsch G6119T-ET Players Edition Tennessee Rose w/ Electrone Body - Deep Cherry Stain
The G6119T-ET Players Edition Tennessee Rose with Electrone Body from Gretsch supplies you with the classic hollowbody tone that so many rockabilly, jazz, blues, and rock players have fallen in love with over the decades. But the G6119T-ET is not just a throwback: this beauty has been designed for modern playing styles as well. Thanks to an arched maple body, the G6119T-ET delivers an open-sounding snap, putting its tone front and center of any mix — ideal for both the studio and the stage. A smooth "U"-shaped maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard offers incredible response and playability, letting you rip off smoking leads and fat, chugging chords. And when you plug in, a pair of FT-67 Filter'Tron humbucking pickups delivers all the snarl and purr you desire. Finally, a classic Bigsby string-through tailpiece provides vintage, twangy tremolo and sustain.
Maple is considered by many to be one of the most lively, bright, and colorful tonewoods out there, which is exactly why Gretsch decided to make their Gretsch G6119T-ET Players Edition almost entirely out of this wonderful tonewood. At Sweetwater, we've found that thollowbody's arched body yields a snappy, open tone that — when combined with the pristine sound of its Filter'Tron humbuckers — sounds wonderful across a variety of musical styles.
Nothing beats the character and vintage vibe that a real Bigsby-style tailpiece adds to the Gretsch G6119T-ET Players Edition Tennessee Rose. Based on the original design created by Paul A. Bigsby, this Bigsby-licensed tailpiece requires little effort to use, making it particularly easy to pull off slow, subtle, and extended bends.
