Gretsch G6134T-58 Limited Edition Penguin 'Light Blue Pearl' Electric Guitar

The Gretsch G6134T-58 Limited Edition Penguin is one of the most visually arresting and tonally distinguished limited edition instruments Gretsch has produced - a rare bird in every sense of the word, finished in the gloriously rare and unique Light Blue Pearl that transforms the Penguin's already iconic silhouette into something genuinely extraordinary. The Light Blue Pearl finish shimmers and shifts with the light in a way that flat colours simply cannot replicate, the pearlescent quality of the finish interacting with the arched maple top's contours to create a visual effect that is at once vintage-inspired and utterly contemporary. Silver sparkle body binding with W/B/W/B purfling and a silver plexi pickguard with Penguin graphic and Gretsch logo complete a visual package of exceptional coherence and distinction.

The chambered mahogany body with arched maple top delivers the warm, resonant, and acoustically complex tonal character that defines the Penguin platform - fuller and warmer than a fully hollow construction, with the feedback resistance and sustain of a chambered design. TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter'Tron pickups are among the finest and most tonally authentic Filter'Tron-style pickups produced anywhere in the world today, delivering the clear, snappy, twangy, and harmonically complex voice that Gretsch guitars are celebrated for with exceptional articulation and dynamic range. The String-Thru Bigsby B3CP tailpiece provides smooth, expressive vibrato with excellent tuning stability, while the Space Control bridge with pinned ebony base, mahogany Standard U neck, 12" radius ebony fingerboard with mother-of-pearl Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays and Luminlay side dots, Grover Imperial tuners, jewelled G-Arrow knobs, and bone nut complete a specification of genuinely premium quality throughout. Ideal for rockabilly, country, jazz, and roots players who want the finest and rarest expression of the Penguin platform in a Limited Edition configuration.
