Gretsch G6120DE Duane Eddy Signature Hollow Body with Bigsby Desert Sunrise
THE KING OF TWANG!
Celebrate Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy Award Winner Duane Eddy and his legendary tone with his Gretsch signature model guitar.
Features include twin DynaSonic™ single-coil pickups, Tru-Arc™ "rocking" bar bridge, lacquer finish, trestle bracing and special neck and headstock profile replicated from Duane's original G6120, heard on many of his chart-topping hits.
This exceptional instrument offers the identical look, feel, and style of Duane Eddy's personal 1957 Gretsch G6120. Harkening back to the original, it features a sleek neck design and period headstock, and is fitted with reliable DynaSonic pickups for that signature Gretsch single-coil tone. Complete with a custom Bigsby B6CBDE vibrato tailpiece, the Gretsch G6120DE Duane Eddy hollowbody guitar delivers an undeniably genuine experience.
With origins dating back to the late '40s, the Gretsch-DeArmond Fidelatone - also known as the "DynaSonic" single-coil - has long been the preferred pickup choice for Gretsch's archtop lineup. These iconic pickups have left an indelible mark on early rock and roll, rockabilly, jazz, and country guitar, and continue to amaze with their unique sound on the Gretsch G6120DE Duane Eddy signature hollow body. The inclusion of genuine DynaSonic pickups is one of the defining features that give the G6120DE Duane Eddy its unparalleled character.
The Gretsch G6120DE Duane Eddy signature model hollowbody guitar stands out for its distinctive feature - a custom Bigsby tailpiece. The G6120DE Duane Eddy guitar is equipped with a Modern Tru-Arc bridge and Bigsby B6CBDE vibrato tailpiece, featuring a Duane Eddy-style "DE" handle and extra-long string-retainer pins. With this Bigsby B6CBDE vibrato, effortlessly performing long and subtle bends on the G6120DE Duane Eddy is a breeze.
For full twang, strap this G6120DE on for the full experience.
