Gretsch G6128T-GH George Harrison Signature Duo Jet Electric Guitar Review

Made in Japan, the guitar features all the custom appointments that differentiated Harrison's guitar from other Duo Jets of the late '50s and early '60s.

And lately, it's been more common to see Telecaster influenced body styles fitted with Gretsch Filtertron type pickups. Chalk it up to lust for the Fender Custom shop's La Cabronita or the boutique builders that have caught on to the sonic potential of this pairing, but this design has been cropping up all over in recent days. In many ways, it's an obvious match-two iconic country music guitars-Telecaster and Gretsch-crossbred into a monster of twang. Dingwall Guitars' take on this mongrel caught… Full Story »
