		<description><![CDATA[<strong>Gretsch Eddie Cochran G6120 Left Handed Signature Hollow Body </strong>
 
After the release of the Custom Shop Eddie Cochran Tribute guitar this year, Gretsch are now in the process of releasing an Eddy Cochran Professional Range model. This will be replacing the old G6120W-57 Chet Atkins Hollow Body model, and will be  more affordable version of the Custom Shop G6120ETC.

Gretsch celebrates the legacy of rock 'n' roll and rockabilly pioneer Eddie Cochran with the G6120 Eddie Cochran SIGNATURE Hollow Body model, based on the distinctively modified guitar that fueled Cochran’s highly influential and all-too-brief career.

Distinctive elements include a special &#34;open&#34; internal body design and the unique combination of a DynaSonic&#8482; single-coil bridge pickup and Lindy Fralin &#34;dog ear&#34; single-coil neck pickup. Features include a three-ply arched maple top with parallel bracing and double-bound &#34;F&#34; holes; three-ply arched maple back and three-ply maple sides; two-ply body binding (white-black); two-piece maple neck with 9.5&#34; radius, single-ply binding and polished brass nut; 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with western-themed pearloid inlays (cactus, steer heads and fences); single-ply headstock binding; translucent plexi pick guard with Gretsch logo; &#34;G&#34;arrow control knobs; compensated aluminium bridge with rosewood base; Bigsby&#174; B6GBVF tailpiece; gold and polished aluminium hardware; gold-plated Grover&#174; V98G Sta-Tite&#8482; tuners; elegant Western Maple Stain finish and a deluxe hard-shell case.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<strong>LAST OF THE FEW.</strong> When they are gone, there will be no more, and certainly not at this price! This guitar normally retails at $5400.00 Don't miss out on this deal, get in early.

  <strong>As rare as they come!</strong> Back in the mid 1950's the folks at the Gretsch&#174; factory thought it would be a great idea to utilize the unique visual characteristics of knotty pine wood on a guitar. And if that wasn't enough, they fused an actual 'western' belt buckle to the tailpiece for additional cowboy theme. These rare original 6130 Knotty Pine guitars built during the Gretsch Brooklyn, New York era fetch major dollars on today's vintage market. Now offered for the first time in limited quantities in over 50 years is the G6130 Knotty Pine Roundup! You will be amazed when you gaze upon the arched book-matched knotty pine top with engraved 'G' brand western leather bound body, graced with the infamous western buckle tailpiece and steer head pickguard. You will be blown away when you see the detail of the cacti, fences and steer heads engraved on the block pearloid fretboard inlays and steer head on the headstock. Like the originals, "That Great Gretsch Sound" is produced by the combination of DynaSonic&#8482; pickups and a Synchro-Sonic&#8482; bridge floating on a one piece chambered mahogany body.

		<description><![CDATA[<strong>The Gretsch G6120 Kieth Scott Nashville Signature Model</strong>

Keith Scott 6120KS Nashville features a brilliant gold top that contrasts beautifully with dark mahogany sides and back. The 24 1 /2 &#34; scale neck has an ebony fingerboard with humped block position markers on a rock maple neck. The 16&#34; wide multiple bound body also features oversized f-holes, master and individual pickup volume controls, tone control and Gretsch's Space Control bridge. Gretsch single coil DynaSonic pickups give the Keith Scott model the tone of the mid-fifties guitars, duplicating the pickup that was used until 1958. This beauty comes complete with 24K gold plated hardware and Gretsch Bigsby vibrato.
