The Story

Custom Shop Masterbuilt '57 Penguin NOS Electric Guitar Silver Sparkle

Every time we think we've seen it all, another mind blowing Gretsch comes through the door and exceeds our expectations. This new '57 Penguin in a wild-looking silver sparkle finish did exactly that. Masterbuilt by Stephen Stern, this guitar bears all the trappings of a classic '57 Penguin including a laminated maple top, gold-plated Grover Tuners and the hallmark "G" tailpiece and adds an NOS finish to give the whole package a bit more of a "played-in" look and feel, despite it being a brand new instrument.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Case Candy and Paperwork
