The guitars conceived and produced by the Gretsch Company after WWII represent some of the more unique sounding and visually dynamic models available during the ''50s and into the mid-''60s.
'62 Chet Atkins Hollowbody model 6120
The Chet Atkins 6120 Hollowbody model experienced a significant re-design for the 1962 model year, employing a double-cutaway, sealed top, and ultra-thin body the company referenced as "Electrotone technology". This specimen is unique in that it was a special one-off factory order without the standard string-mute system feature. (Photo courtesy of Steve Wilson)
