Gretsch 6122 Country Gentleman 1966
This 1966 Gretsch Country Gentleman is a well-preserved vintage example, recently serviced at Montréal Guitar. The guitar was previously refretted. A complete fret dress, binding touchups, and a full professional setup were performed during recent maintenance.
The original finish is preserved beneath a thin, stable vintage overspray. All electronics are original and fully functional. Four old holes on the face of the headstock were professionally filled. The instrument plays cleanly with low action and stable intonation.
