Gretsch G6129T-89VS Vintage Select 89 Sparkle Jet Electric Guitar

The Sound of a Movement Re-created
It was impossible to escape the grunge movement in the early 1990s, with raucous songs by game-changing artists popping up on radio stations across the globe. For many of these musicians, the Gretsch Duo Jet was a centerpiece of their sound, and many vintage collectors have tried painstakingly to get their hands on this piece of music history. Three decades later, the Gretsch G6129T-89VS Vintage Select '89 Duo Jet Electric Guitar captures the sound of this pivotal movement with fantastic results thanks to period-accurate construction and electronics. A chambered mahogany body with an arched laminated maple top produces incredible richness, and the maple neck and rosewood fingerboard make playing easy and comfortable. TV Jones pickups imbue the G6129T-89VS with unmistakable vintage tone, while Gretsch’s classic high-quality controls provide endless tone shaping options.




Period-accurate construction and unmistakable tone
Evident in every Vintage Select series guitar, Gretsch cuts no corners when reproducing iconic rock sounds. The G6129T-89VS is no exception, impressively capturing the primordial days of the Pacific Northwest grunge movement in this period-accurate 6-string solidbody powerhouse. A chambered mahogany body and maple top reside at its core, producing incredible harmonic richness and a livelier, more articulate tone. TV Jones humbuckers in the bridge and neck replicate the beloved punch and growl of vintage Filter’Tron pickups, controlled with a master volume with treble bleed circuit and master tone. The tone chaser in you will love the G6129T-89VS's independent volume controls for each pickup, adding even greater versatility to this workhorse.






Effortlessly playable neck
When an axe this exceptional rolls into Sweetwater, good luck getting it out of the hands of our guitarists, especially when it feels as good as it sounds. Pick up the G6129T-89VS, and you’ll immediately notice the smoothness and comfort of its bright and snappy set maple neck. Top it off with a silky rosewood fingerboard, and you get a showstopping period piece ready for some serious sonic mayhem for hours on end.
