The Gretsch 6120 is one of the most iconic hollow-body electric guitars ever made — especially tied to rockabilly, early rock ’n’ roll, country, and roots music. A 2000-era 6120 sits in an interesting transition period: modern enough to be reliable, but still very “old Gretsch” in personality.
Chambered spruce center block for dynamic resonance, high gain power and lightweight comfort.
