Gretsch Guitars G6129T-89VS Vintage Select ´89 Sparkle Jet With Bigsby Silver Sparkle

Description

The G6129T-89VS Vintage Select ’89 Sparkle Jet with Bigsby from Gretsch Guitars pays homage to a classic late-‘80s design that rocked the forefront of the Pacific Northwest grunge movement that overtook the music world in the early 1990s. Delivering signature solidbody power and punch, the G6129T-89VS features period-correct chambered mahogany construction, which magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for a livelier and more articulate tone.

Equipped with TV Jones TV Classic Plus bridge and TV Jones TV Classic neck pickups to replicate that unmistakable vintage Filter´Tron sound to fabulous sonic effect, the G6129T-89VS Vintage Select ´89 Sparkle Jet can be intuitively commanded using a versatile control layout featuring master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and three-way pickup toggle switch. Other features include a maple set neck, 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with pearloid Hump Block inlays, bone nut, G-arrow knobs, Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, Adjusto-Matic bridge with pinned rosewood base and Gotoh tuners. This grunge-era beauty comes in Gold Sparkle or Silver Sparkle finishes with silver pickguard, nickel hardware and late-´80s black headstock with Gretsch logo and horseshoe inlay.
