About this listing

This 1958 Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean is an incredible player, updated with a new nut and fresh frets. It is super lively and responsive, and the single humbucker delivers a fantastic vintage character that effortlessly nails twang to the wall, while still offering enough sweetness to cover more traditional styles of the era in which it was made. Excellent condition: clean with honest finish wear, checking, and minor dings; however, very clean for its age! A stunning guitar in every way! Includes a non-original hardshell case.
