The Story

G6131G-MY-RB Limited Edition Malcolm Young Signature Jet Vintage Firebird Red Used

This is a very lightly used Gretsch Malcolm Young Signature Jet. The case took a hit and has a gouge on the exterior, but the latches all still close and protect the guitar. There's just one very small indent on the back of the body, which doesn't go through the finish. A long awaited limited edition guitar from Gretsch, this is the G6131G-MY-RB Malcolm Young Signature Jet! Nicknamed “The Beast,” Young used this Firebird Red iteration of the guitar in early AC/DC performances and music videos including “It’s a Long Way to The Top,” before eventually making his own mods and stripping the paint job. To recreate Young’s earliest days with the instrument, the G6131G-MY-RB signature model comes equipped with TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Tron bridge and neck pickups that replicate the unmistakable vintage Gretsch voicing, along with an added TV Jones Starwood humbucker in the middle for clear and punchy tone.

Includes: Hardshell Case
