Gretsch G6131T-62 Vintage Select ’62 Jet Firebird Red Electric guitar

Electric guitar from Professional Collection and Vintage Selection Edition. Inspired by the pivotal and prolific years of Gretsch’s 1950s and early ’60s golden age, Vintage Select Edition guitars are designed for the player who appreciates the finest in musical instrument heritage. The new G6131T-62 Vintage Select ’62 Jet Firebird with Bigsby rocks that legacy to perfection. The early 1960s saw the double-cut Jet get a black back, a zero-fret and gold hardware. As previously, its signature power and punch came from chambered mahogany construction, which magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for livelier and more articulate tone. That’s all here on this fiery tone machine, along with TV Jones Classic pickups that replicate that vintage Filter’Tron sound to fabulous sonic effect. Premium features include 1962 specs and appointments, Double-cutaway Jet body in Vintage Firebird Red finish, Dual TV Jones Classic Filter’Tron pickups, Aged body and neck binding, aged fingerboard inlays, Space Control bridge with pinned ebony base and Bigsby B3G vibrato tailpiece, Gold hardware and Treble bleed circuit, “Squeezebox” PIO capacitors.

Fretboard: Ebony

Ebony is a very hard and dense wood with a smooth surface and a rich, dark color. It offers a clear, articulate tone with excellent response. The ebony fingerboard is popular for its durability, speed and luxurious appearance, while offering excellent playability and precise tone.

Finish: Polished

The glossy finish gives any surface an elegant and luxurious look. This type of finish is achieved by applying several layers of lacquer or resin, which are then polished to a high gloss. This provides a smooth, reflective finish, enhancing color and structure of substrate. The glossy finish not only improves aesthetics, but also protects against dust, moisture and minor scratches.

Body: Mahogany

Mahogany is a dense wood that produces a warm, full tone with rich bass and a strong mid-range. It is known for its excellent sustain and resonance, giving it a deep and round sound.

Neck: Maple

Maple is known for its strength and stability, making it ideal for necks that need to resist bending and warping.
