The
Gretsch G6136T Falcon Roundup Relic Aged Vintage Orange
Hollowbody electric guitar combines the incredible craftsmanship of the experienced luthiers from the Gretsch USA Custom Shop. Finest tonewoods in traditional construction, high quality premium hardware and electronics from Grover, TV Jones and Bigsby and lovely optical details in tortoiseshell and mother-of-pearl form this unique electric guitar. These features help the Falcon skilfully create the connection between classic vintage sounds and modern playability, making the Gretsch G6136T Falcon Roundup Relic Aged Vintage Orange ideal for use in every situation, whether in the living room, studio or on stage. Of course, the G6136T Falcon Roundup comes in a neat Custom Shop style with an impressively decorated Gretsch hardshell case and signed certificate of authenticity.
The Gretsch Custom Shop provides the G6136T Falcon Roundup with a uniquely mastered
'Knotty Pine' top
in a
dark vintage orange finish
.
The two-piece top
is made of pine and the
maple hollowbody
is bound with an impressively engraved
leather strap
and supported by an authentic
'59 trestle bracing
. The classic bracing construction connects the top and the back of the instrument via
two large spruce struts
and ensures ideal balance between stiffness and vibration. The result is long-lasting sustain while reducing the risk of feedback on the amplifier.
The Gretsch G6136T Falcon Roundup Relic uses
TV Jones T-Armond single-coils
, which are probably the best reproduction of the legendary
DeArmond 2000 pickups
. These single coils in the design of the 1940s with
large cylindrical magnets
produce authentic vintage sounds with crystal-clear highs and controlled mid-range and, when played with a little more gain, prove their raw and irrepressible attitude with classic twang. Thanks to the
Treble Bleed circuit
on the
Master Volume
and an additional
no-load tone control
, the unmistakable character of both pickups is completely preserved even on lower volume settings and with the treble control open.
As a genuine representative of the Gretsch USA Custom Shop, the Gretsch G6136T Falcon Roundup is equipped with the very best in premium features. These include a
Tru-Arc brass bridge
with ebony base, an authentic
Bigsby USA B-6 vibrato
with wide 'paddle' handle and
six Grover Imperial tuners
with backlocking function for stable tunings. All parts are finished in a noble
gold finish
with authentic ageing. The Falcon has also been given a lot of attention to optical details. Multiple
inlays of tortoise-shell imitation
and a
multi-layer black/aged white binding
adorn the body and fretboard of the Falcon, whereas
additional inlays of mother-of-pearl
grace the two TV Jones T-Armond
pickups
.
