Description
Few guitars carry the twang pedigree of the Chet Atkins signature line, and this G6120 Hollow Body Flame updates the classic Nashville-shaped formula without losing its personality. The single-cutaway body spans 16″ across the lower bout and 2.5″ deep, built from laminated maple back and sides topped with a laminated flame maple top under gloss urethane, framed by bound oversized F-holes and multiple layers of body binding.
The rock maple neck carries an ebony fingerboard with a 12″ radius, 22 frets, and Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, bound along the edge for a finished look. A 1.6875″ synthetic bone nut and 24.6″ scale length keep the feel familiar to anyone who’s spent time on a Gretsch hollow body.
Tone comes from dual High Sensitive Filter’Tron pickups, switched via a 3-position toggle (bridge / bridge+neck / neck) and shaped with independent neck and bridge volume knobs, a master volume, and a 3-position master tone switch offering medium roll-off, wide-open, and slight roll-off settings. A rosewood-based Adjusto-Matic bridge pairs with a Bigsby B6G vibrato tailpiece and flat handle for that signature shimmer and dive.
Details that set this model apart:
- Curly maple headstock overlay with horseshoe inlay
- Gold-plated hardware, including Grover Rotomatic die-cast tuners
- Gold plexi pickguard with Chet Atkins signpost and Gretsch logo
- Knurled strap retainer knobs and adjustable truss rod
Arrives in the G6241 Deluxe Hardshell Case for safe travel between gigs and sessions.
