SOLD - Contact us for more options

This used, original, vintage Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean from 1967 is in Very Good condition and features a Maple top with a Faded Walnut finish and Transparent Cherry finish on the back and sides. This has a 1 5/8" nut as well as a zero fret with the classic painted f-holes A great-sounding guitar, it also has a two-piece Maple neck, bound Rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets and pearloid thumbprint inlays with a 24 3/4" scale length. As expected in a '67 of this model, it does have some binding and heel deterioration (see photo), but overall is in really nice shape.

Loaded with two Hi-Lo 'Tron single-coil pickups with adjustable pole pieces, it's got all the sweet rockabilly tone you could ask for, while being fully capable of dishing out hard rock or blues tunes. It's got a killer Bigsby tailpiece, and plenty of ways to control your tone, courtesy of a three-way tone and three-way pickup selector, Master Volume knob and individual pickup volume knobs, and a standby switch. This Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean plays beautifully and sounds amazing. Includes non-original '60s hardshell case.
