We're excited to include Gretsch among the great electrics we carry. The company began in 1883 in Brooklyn, but it reached international popularity in the 50s and 60s when everyone from Duane Eddy and Eddie Cochran favored the 6120 Chet Atkins models, to the Beatles, Stones and Who used the Gretsch Tennessean, DuoJet, Double Anniversary and other models. Billy Zoom of X has long been noted for his trademark '55 Silver Jet. More recently the Raconteurs, Dave Grohl and others have favored the Falcon, Duo Jet and other models. Innovative and classic, with a whole lotta soul - Gretsch! New Gretsch instruments available for purchase within the United States only.
