Gretsch Jet FireBird G6131T-62 Vintage Select '62 Jet with Bigsby - $2,000
QR Code Link to This Post
The Duo Jet practically defined the early '60s for Gretsch, and this G6131T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Duo Jet captures all its spirit perfectly. To get the most authentic late-'50s/early-'60s solidbody tone, Gretsch outfitted this re-creation with a pair of TV Jones Classic Filter'Tron pickups and a period-correct Treble Bleed circuit with Squeezebox PIO capacitors. The chambered mahogany body adds a touch of acoustic resonance to the '62 Duo Jet's tone, plus you get a bit of extra attack from the '62-standard zero fret. Lastly, there's just something extra classy you can only get from the contrast of a vintage Firebird Red finish with gold hardware, which includes a Space Control bridge with pinned ebony base and Bigsby B3G vibrato tailpiece.
