As rare as they come! Back in the mid 1950's the folks
at the Gretsch® factory thought it would be a great
idea to utilize the unique visual characteristics of knotty
pine wood on a guitar. And if that wasn’t enough, they
fused an actual ‘western’ belt buckle to the tailpiece for
additional cowboy mojo. These rare original 6130 Knotty
Pine guitars built during the Gretsch Brooklyn, New York
era fetch major dollars on today’s vintage market. Now
offered for the first time in limited quantities in over 50
years is the G6130 Knotty Pine Roundup!
You'll want to holler, "Yee-haa! Gitty-up!" when you
gaze upon the arched book-matched knotty pine top with
engraved 'G' brand western leather bound body, graced
with the infamous western buckle tailpiece and steer
head pickguard. You may even start wearing spurs when
you see the detail of the cacti, fences and steer heads
engraved on the block pearloid fretboard inlays and steer
head on the headstock. Like the originals, "That Great
Gretsch Sound" is produced by the combination of DynaSonic™ pickups and a Synchro-Sonic™ bridge floating
on a one piece chambered mahogany body.
