SKU: 1201-1F17313CHF 5'890.00
In stock
Early Gretsch Tennessean, still with the deeper 2 1/4” body as it was only built in this year. From 1962 onwards, the body of the Tennessean became thinner and the sound correspondingly thinner and less “acoustic”. Accordingly, pieces like this 6119 are popular and rare. With original Gretsch HiLotron pickups and Gretsch by Bigsby vibrato tailpiece.
Including non original case.
