Gretsch G6128TSP Duo Jet Special Jet Black
It was 1961 when George Harrison finally got his hands on a genuine American guitar worthy of his prodigious musical genius. The Duo Jet was Gretch's entry into the "solidbody" market (though this instrument actually has a couple of body chambers) in 1953. George's was probably made in 1957 and it was used on many, many Beatles recordings. This exact replica has a number of differences from the standard G6128T including aged binding and inlays, rocking bar bridge, slightly different knob and switch placement, and large body chambers for ultralight weight. Single-coil DynaSonic pickups, hump block inlay fretboard markers, multiple body bindings, and silver plexi pickguard give it the perfect vintage vibe. An arched maple top with mahogany back and sides, a one-piece mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, and Bigsby vibrato are all just like the original.
