2008 Gretsch G6120AM Chet Atkins – Tiger Maple Amber Stain | MIJ | Near Mint | OHSC
Up for sale is a beautiful 2008 Gretsch G6120AM Chet Atkins Hollow Body in stunning Tiger Maple Amber Stain, complete with the original Gretsch hard-shell case. Built in Japan as part of the Professional Collection, this model delivers the classic Gretsch look, feel, and tone with exceptional craftsmanship.
This guitar is extremely clean and well cared for — still retaining the protective plastic on the pickguard. It presents nearly like new, though conservatively rated below mint.
