It's a guitar that doesn't just play music—it embodies an era. With its striking appearance, this Falcon stands tall, boasting an impeccable blend of sophistication and vintage allure. The glossy nitrocellulose lacquer finish in vintage white gleams under any spotlight, complemented by gold hardware that screams opulence. Its gold sparkle bound neck, body, and F Holes exude a timeless charm, while the gold jeweled arrow knobs and the iconic Cadillac “G” tailpiece add a touch of automotive-inspired elegance. This guitar isn’t just an instrument; it's a statement piece that demands attention with its luxurious aesthetics.

Sonic Mastery in Classic Design: Beyond its glamorous exterior lies a sonic powerhouse. The Falcon's heart beats with a pair of TV Jones T-Armond single-coil pickups, perfectly encapsulating the definitive hollowbody tone. These pickups, coupled with the Gretsch “Squeezebox” paper-in-oil capacitors, deliver unparalleled transparency and clarity, allowing the guitar's soulful, hollowbody resonance to shine through. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Synchro-Sonic bridge not only resonates with original-era authenticity but also ensures pinpoint intonation accuracy. The solid spruce top combined with laminated maple back and sides generates a balanced, powerful sound with remarkable projection from its 2.75”-deep body. Whether delivering articulate chords or intricate melodies, this Falcon offers unparalleled tonal versatility and clarity, making it a formidable force on any stage or in any studio.

Adorned with 22 medium jumbo frets and elegant mother-of-pearl hump block and feather inlays, this neck doesn’t just facilitate playability—it elevates it to an art form.
