THE ULTIMATE GRETSCH 6120

Posted by Anonymous Musician from Louisville, KY on Feb 27, 2009

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Professional musician

Reviewer's Play Style: Fingerstyle/Country

The 6120DC is without a doubt the finest guitar I've ever owned in my 50+ years of playing. I instantly bonded with mine and seldom play any of my other guitars.

I play fingerstyle in the Merle Travis/Chet Atkins style and this guitar is the perfect choice for that style of music. I have a 2008 model and mine luckily came with the TV Jones Classics pickups which nail that vintage great GRETSCH Filter'Tron tone.

The thinner body of the DC along with the faux F-Holes give the guitar a very focused response that really shines when recording or cutting through the mix onstage.

I do not think a better guitar is built today.

SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Agilerocks! from Covington, WA on May 23, 2007

Experience w/product: I have used it

Reviewer's Background: Active Musician

Reviewer's Play Style: Rock

Man! This guitar is freakin' awesome!!!!!!!!!! It has a beautiful semi-hollow body which gives it a bluesey sound. And has killer crunch because of it's rockin humbuckers. I recommend this to any serious musician ( I wish I had that kind of money to spend! ).
