The Story

G6128T-53 Vintage Select '53 Duo Jet Bigsby Black

With the Gretsch Vintage Select series, you’ll think you stepped off of a time-traveling subway and into the Gretsch factory of the 1950’s. From this lineup comes a pre-owned and lightly played Vintage Select ’53 Duo Jet in a Black finish. The specs are true to they were in 1953, from the aged binding and fretboard inlays to the TV Jones T-Armond pickups. The guitar has a compensated aluminum bridge, and a nickel Bigsby tailpiece for adding in vibrato. The guitar is in overall excellent condition with the original case included!

Includes: Hardshell Case
