Gretsch G6120T-HR Brian Setzer Hot Rod, Extreme Coolant Green Sparkle

Full Description

Brilliant blues tone

This is the sound of a rhythm and blues legend. Designed with the iconic Brian Setzer, the G6120T-HR has blues right at its heart. Brian has made a name for himself for his unique, genre-spanning style throughout a long and distinguished career. Starting out with rockabilly icons the Stray Cats, he went on to form his own Brian Setzer Orchestra - playing tracks inspired by '50s swing and blues.

As such, the G6120T-HR has been designed to produce the sharp, versatile tones that are typical of these genres. It's been loaded with specially designed TV Jones Brian Setzer pickups. They're high output, so your guitar will always be heard loud and clear - even in the thickest of mixes. With touches of overdrive and an incredibly punchy tonal profile, every note you hit will burst with power and definition. It's a sound you just don't get any more - the stuff of legend.

History-making tremolo

It's not often that you can attribute the word 'legendary' to something as small as a guitar's bridge. But in the case of the Gretsch G6120T-HR's Bigsby tremolo, it's completely fitting. The Bigsby has been around for decades, and its distinctive, warbling vibrato has been heard on the music of everyone from Led Zeppelin to The Beatles, The Rolling Stones to The White Stripes, David Bowie and beyond. So you know the sound you'll get from this guitar's tremolo is good enough for the best.

Warmth in every note

There's nothing quite like rosewood for making every note you play sound full and rich. The absolute premium when it comes to guitar fingerboards, it feels sensational beneath your fingertips. Its warm quality will perfectly complement the sharp tones from the G6120T-HR's TV Jones pickups. And it offers a superbly smooth playing action, too. So gliding from note to note is made easier than ever.

Be sure to stand out

There'll be no mistaking who's playing when you're holding one of these. The Gretsch G6120T's brightly coloured extreme coolant green sparkle finish is eye-catching, striking, and will command the attention of everyone in your audience. Plus its sparkling aesthetic will look glittering under stage lights. There aren't many guitars out there that look this distinctive. Make a statement as you play.
