DISC Gretsch G6134T-58 Vintage Select '58 Penguin TVJ's Vintage White

Full Description

Chambered Mahogany Body

The Gretsch G6134T-58 Vintage Select '58 Penguin is designed with mid-50s-style sound chambers, making the guitar lightweight, and offering a superb resonance. Its chambered mahogany design magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for livelier and more articulate tone. A single-cutaway is also incorporated and provides easier access to those unreachable high frets, for a flexible performance.

Real Bone Nut

This Penguin model also features a real bone nut, which maintains its authentic appearance and offers excellent resonance and sustain. A bone nut also delivers a very balanced tone, naturally self lubricates and helps you stay in tune for longer.

TV Jones Classic Pickups

The Gretsch G6134T-58 Vintage Select '58 Penguin is equipped with TV Jones Classic pickups that respond to every pick or strum, offering a refined, articulate tone and an unmistakable sound reminiscent of the 1950s era. Controlling these classic pickups is easy with independent volume controls, a master volume control and a three way toggle switch, that allows you to perfectly tailor your sound. In addition, the new Gretsch “Squeezebox” paper-in-oil capacitors deliver silky vintage high end, for the ultimate sound.

Pinned Space Control Bridge With Bigsby

The Gretsch G6134T-58 is the perfect choice for fingerstylists, as the pinned space control bridge allows for easy adjustments. Each string is provided with a transversing adjustment which makes it possible to set a broad spread of the strings for fingerstyles, or a narrow spread for picking and chord work. The G6134T-58 also features Gretsch's legendary Bigsby B3GB vibrato tailpiece, which provides a smooth tremolo system for creating vibrato effects, along with subtle movements in chords.

Classic Appointments

Like many other guitars from Gretsch, the Vintage Select '58 Penguin is decorated with classic Gretsch details including a gold hardware, plexi pickguard with gold Gretsch Logo, gold sparkle body and neck binding, and Mother of Pearl Thumbnail inlays. If that's not enough, the G6134T-58 Vintage Select '58 Penguin also comes with a deluxe hardshell case.
