Gretsch G6136T-WHT Players Edition Falcon with String-Thru Bigsby

Superb Sound Quality

The Gretsch G6136T Players Edition is equipped with two high sensitive Filter’Tron humbucking pickups, located in the bridge and neck position. These deliver a pristine high end, glassy midrange, robust low end and balanced harmonics for tone that blends seamlessly with other instruments. Controlling these pickups is easy with the Jeweled “G”-Arrow control knobs, that offer independent volume, and a master tone, as well as a 3-position toggle switch for tonal variations.

ML Bracing

The innovative Gretsch “ML” bracing delivers huge hollow body sound from the comfortable 2.25” body. Equipped with classic ‘F’ holes for added sound projection, the White Falcon delivers a great resonant tone even when played acoustically.

Neck and Fingerboard

A 12”-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and striking pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays tops a maple neck with a comfortably familiar standard “U”-shaped profile for fluidly easy playing. The added cutaway design also allows easier access to the higher frets and allows you to play more complex styles.

String-Through Tailpiece

The Bigsby tailpiece is now string-through, making it quicker and easier to change strings as well as providing increased vibration transfer for enhanced sustain. This is useful for gigging musicians who may need to change their strings more often and quickly.

Classic Cosmetic Details

Not only does the White Falcon provide you with uncompromising sound, it also comes equipped with high quality appointments that makes it worthy of wearing the Gretsch name. The White Falcon offers total sophistication with the gold Grover Imperial locking tuning machines and gold jeweled “G Arrow” control knobs to the gold sparkle bound neck, body and F holes, white gloss urethane finish and gold vintage thick plexi pickguard with Gretsch logo. As well as these, the Falcon also offers the classic Bigsby tremolo for enhancing you sound. Along with all these prestigious features, the White Falcon also includes a deluxe hardshell case for safe transport between performances.
