2016 Gretsch G6136T-WHT Player’s Edition White Falcon
Up for sale, a 2016 Gretsch G6136T-WHT Player’s Edition Falcon in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. Crafted in Japan as part of Gretsch’s Professional Collection, this Falcon delivers traditional aesthetics and an array of vital, golden age Gretsch tonalities, featuring Filter’Tron humbuckers and a gloss White finish accented by gold hardware, including a String-Thru Bigsby vibrato, jeweled "G" pointer knobs, and locking tuners.
The hollow maple body features Gretsch’s ML bracing, essentially half of Gretsch’s Trestle Bracing, with “feet” under the bridge area but not by the neck block. This results in a ‘best of both worlds’ scenario, offering the huge, open tone of Parallel Bracing, combined with the feedback-busting, sustain inducing properties of Trestle Bracing.
The Filter’Tron humbuckers capture classic Gretsch jangle and punch, with a notably detailed, articulate feel. These pickups are powerful and balanced, with pristine top-end chime, glassy mids, and plenty of low end heft. And Gretsch's “Squeezebox” paper-in-oil caps add smooth vintage tone while the treble bleed circuit ensures clarity is retained when rolling the Volume control down. Weighing 8lbs 5oz, this White Falcon has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
