Vintage Elegance Resurrected: The Vintage Select Edition 1962 Chet Atkins Tennessee Rose with Bigsby embodies the timeless charm and sonic excellence of Gretsch guitars from the early rock 'n' roll era. A relic of a bygone musical age, this instrument resonates with the soulful sound and iconic style that define Gretsch as a household name. The deep cherry stain gloss urethane finish, aged white binding with black purfling, and silver vintage thick plexi pickguard adorned with the Gretsch logo are a testament to the classic aesthetics loved by Gretsch enthusiasts. A true throwback to the golden era, this guitar carries the legacy of That Great Gretsch Sound with pride.

These pickups create a broad and lively tone with a natural response, ensuring that the guitar's unique voice cuts through any mix. The parallel tone bars connecting the top and back contribute to the authentic vintage tone, while the traditional Gretsch controls, including individual pickup volume knobs, a master volume, and a classic three-position tone switch, offer a versatile palette for tonal exploration. The new Gretsch "Squeezebox" paper-in-oil capacitors provide a silky vintage high end, adding an extra layer of sonic brilliance to this already remarkable instrument.
