Gretsch G6128T-GH George Harrison Signature Duo Jet™ with Bigsby®, Rosewood Fingerboard, Black - Used
Gretsch G6128T-GH George Harrison Signature Duo Jet™ with Bigsby®, Rosewood Fingerboard, Black - Used
On offer today is Tosh's personal 2018 Gretsch G6128T-GH George Harrison Signature Duo Jet, and is an absolute must for any George Harrison, Beatles, or Traveling Wilburys fan.
This comes from Tosh's personal collection, and to put it bluntly, is an absolute pearler of an instrument. It is objectively the nicest guitar they own, and is in as close to new condition as you will find on the used market. A great opportunity to save some decent coin off RRP ($6,699).
“But Tosh, why are you selling this guitar if it’s the nicest one you own?”, I hear you pipe up. Reality is that as nice as this thing is I don’t vibe with Gretsch Duo Jets anywhere as much as I do with my Falcon, so George and my ‘94 Sparkle Jet need to make way.

Features include a lightweight mid-'50s-style chambered body, Bigsby® B3C tailpiece with a black Phillips head tremolo arm pivot bolt, and an offset strap button on lower bout.
Other features include three-ply body binding (white-black-white), single-ply white neck and headstock binding, 12"-radius 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with Hump Block pearloid inlays, two single-coil DynaSonic™ single-coil pickups, vintage-style "rocking bar" bridge with rosewood base, silver plexi pickguard, chrome-plated Grover® V98CM Sta-Tite™ tuners, Gretsch G-arrow control knobs, chrome-plated hardware, Harrison's signature on the truss rod cover and a premium tweed hardshell case.
