Made famous by George Harrison of the Beatles, the 1962 Country Gentleman has a rock and roll sound.

The G6122T-62 has the unmistakable sound and style that started the rock revolution.
This guitar is ready to be stirred up, with a flexible tone that fits any music.

Two TV Jones Classic PUs respond to all picking and fingering with a refined, articulate tone.

The traditional Gretsch controls include a picking volume control, master volume, and a 3-way tone switch to create a myriad of tonal variations and personalized tones.

The addition of the new "Squeezebox" paper-in-oil capacitor provides incredibly refined, vintage-like highs.

The standard "U" shaped maple neck features a 12" (304.8mm) radius ebony fingerboard and 22 durable medium jumbo frets (0 fret) for a memorable playing experience in any style. The guitar is also equipped with a simulated F-hole.

The sealed body with simulated F-holes minimizes feedback and provides a realistic vintage tone.

The pinned locking bar bridge responds along with the Bigsby B6GVT vibrato tailpiece for stable tuning. The bone nut allows the strings to slide freely without being constrained by clogged grooves.

A true rock 'n' roll classic, this model features a double-layer string mute system with red felt cover.
It features a standby switch, 3-ply laminated maple top, gold G-arrow control knob, aged white binding with black trim, gloss urethane finish, and aged pearloid thumbnail inlays.
The Gretsch logoed, thick gold vintage plexi pickguard and Grover Imperial gold tuners faithfully reproduce the promise of the specifications that made this guitar legendary.
