Gretsch unveils new guitars, amps

Gretsch are celebrating their 125th anniversary, so that means new models. What better time than NAMM to showcase them!

First is Custom Shop Chet Atkins G6120 125th Anniversary Limited Edition guitar in Transparent Orange finish over real gold leaf. This master-built model features gold-plated hardware and TV Jones Classic pickups. Limited to 25 pieces worldwide, it includes an anniversary strap and belt buckle hand-tooled by legendary leather craftsman, Tom Nix.

Next is the G6118T-LTV 125th Anniversary model. It features the rare Jaguar Tan top and Metallic Gold back and sides. The G6118T-LTV is the first model to include the new "ML" bracing, which synchronizes the vibration of the top and back for increased acoustical openness in tone.

Also to be shown is the G6136DL David Lee Limited Edition artist model, limited to just 30 pieces worldwide. There's also the G5235 G. Love Corvette artist model.

New in amps: The Gretsch Electromatic G5222 amp has five watts, two tubes and two inputs wrapped in a cabinet that Gretsch call... well... "Undeniably Gretsch."
