Description

The new Nick 13 Outlaw Heart acoustic from Gretsch offers the perfect blend of vintage style and modern playability. Modeled on a vintage Gretsch from Nick’s collection but updated with his own flair, it captures his eclectic influences from midcentury roots music to punk – all the territory he traverses both as frontman of Tiger Army and in his Americana solo career.

This guitar features a solid spruce top, mahogany body with a gloss finish, mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard. The Grand Concert body style provides a balanced and comfortable playing experience. The 25.25" scale length allows for great playability and intonation. The fingerboard features an elegant spade inlay pattern, while the headstock bears Nick’s signature ‘n13’ spade logo (associated with his solo work). The handpicked black and oxblood color scheme with cream notes echoes his previous electric Gretsch models.

This guitar's materials and specifications make it an incredibly versatile instrument – the woods used produce a warm, rounded tone that works for various musical styles. The bone nut and compensated bridge provide precise intonation across the fretboard; open-gear tuning machines keep it in tune through dynamic performances. Last but not least, it’s equipped with a Fishman PRESYS VT pickup system that lets you plug in for amplified performances while maintaining the guitar's natural acoustic sound. All of this results in a guitar that sounds as good as it looks!
