Gretsch Brian Setzer Signature Nashville

Description:
The Brian Setzer Nashville is Gretsch's first artist guitar in over twenty years. This truely distinctive instrument combines the best features of the 1950's Nashville with 1990's refinements. "We totally hot-rodded the old 6120," is Brian's description of this new guitar. As a young guitarist growing up in New York, Brian Setzer set his sights on a late '50's Nashville, as played by Duane Eddy. He found it and never gave it up. Brian's original 6120 is the basis of this hybrid instrument. We copied his old pickups, duplicated the neck, and offer an optional lacquer finish. From the 1990's, Sperzel locking tuners, graphite nut, strap locks, and Setzer-style Dice Knobs complete this exceptional guitar.
