Arched maple body provides your tone with excellent definition
Maple has to be one of the most lively, bright, and colorful tonewoods out there, which is exactly why Gretsch decided to make their G6119T-62GE Golden Era Edition 1962 Chet Atkins Tennessee Rose almost entirely out of this wonderful wood. At Sweetwater, we've found that this hollowbody's arched body yields a wonderfully snappy, open tone that, when combined with the broad sound and lively response of its TV Jones Hilo'Tron pickups, cuts through a dense mix and sounds great in any situation.
Sweet vintage tone from TV Jones Hilo'Tron pickups
The Gretsch G6119T-62GE Golden Era Edition 1962 Chet Atkins Tennessee Rose packs a wide-ranging vintage-style voice, thanks to a pair of TV Jones Hilo'Tron single-coil pickups. Essentially a single-coil version of Filter'Tron humbuckers, these pickups deliver a broad range of tones with brilliant highs, mellow lows, and lively response, reflecting the natural voice of the guitar.
Two volume controls + one tone control = exceptional sonic flexibility
It's easy to stereotype the Gretsch G6119T-62GE Golden Era Edition 1962 Chet Atkins Tennessee Rose until you play it, and then you realize you can pull off a lot of tonal tricks with it. With a volume control for each pickup, you can create your perfect balance between warmth, bite, and brilliance when both pickups are engaged. The master tone control lets you fine-tune your sound once you have the pickups dialed in. And thanks to the master volume control, you can take your tube amp from clean to growling without changing the balance between your pickups. Of course, you'll get sweet tone from the neck and bridge pickups individually, but there's a lot of territory to cover when you combine them.
Bigsby tailpiece yields smooth vibrato action
Nothing beats the character and vintage vibe that a real Bigsby-style tailpiece adds to the Gretsch G6119T-62GE Golden Era Edition 1962 Chet Atkins Tennessee Rose. Based on the original design created by Paul A. Bigsby, this Bigsby Licensed tailpiece requires next to no effort to use, making it particularly easy to pull off slow, subtle, and extended bends.
