Gretsch Masterbuilt Double-Cut 6120 No.UC16091443

"This instrument is a very special Steve Stern creation; which had it’s humble beginnings when I sat down with Steve and Rob Maywalt from Gretsch at our local coffee shop to look over some orders. All of us at Wildwood have been totally knocked out by the beauty, build quality and TONE of the Gretsch Masterbuilts and that got us thinking about a special one-off guitar that was unique, but still embraced all the great qualities of these instruments. This one exceeded all of my expectations for both coolness and tone." – Bruce
Tonal Evaluation
The tone of this 6120DC is panoramic with a very articulate woody acoustic response, the neck pickup is lush and transparent with equal amounts of warmth and crystalline clarity, the bridge pickups has a tele-ish punchy attack and brightness with a muscular midrange response. The Bigsby works so smoothly and tuning stability is optimum, sustain is beautiful. Words don’t do it justice, it must be played to be fully appreciated.
