Members dimibetan Posted March 25, 2009 Members Share Posted March 25, 2009 Gretsch 6120BK Nashville? I think, it is: http://www.guitar-village.co.uk/product-detail.asp?id=4132&catid=53&manid=39&quantity=1&product=Gretsch+6120BK+Nashville%2C+Black%2C+Pre+Owned%2C+2001%2C+EC%2C+Inc.+Case Kinda look-a-like. Without the pickguard, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lowbrow Posted March 25, 2009 Members Share Posted March 25, 2009 Nope...Falcon...see the gold sparkle binding and trim? Only Falcons have that. If it was white with gold binding, it'd be a White Falcon (see my avatar), if it was black with silver sparkle binding it'd be a Silver Falcon. Black and Gold is a Black Falcon. There are vast numbers of detail differences between different models and years of Falcons, so you can't get too hung up on control layout, Bigsby handles, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EllenGtrGrl Posted March 25, 2009 Members Share Posted March 25, 2009 Yep, it's a Black Falcon. Like lowbrow said, Gretsch is always changing the control layouts on their guitars. I wonder if Syl used it on the New York Dolls reunion album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb instruments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
