What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: Our luthier completed an inspection of this instrument once it landed with us, and the guitar was deemed to all ready be in otherwise ideal playing and cosmetic condition, and no work was required.

A Gorgeous Metallic Blue (Gretsch calls this finish Platinum) Falcon! This guitar is really, really lovely, and it goes all the way from Malcolm Young to Chet Atkins and everywhere in between! The neck profile is just right, the pickups are smooth and glassy without being harsh, and thanks to the mostly hollowbody construction, it is lightweight! And to add to all of that, we don't think it'd be possible to find something cooler. There's something for everyone in this piece, and it really doesn't get better than this. Don't miss it!
