The double-cutaway version of the 6131 model, Duo-Jet's red sister. A tiny delicous '60s guitar distinguished by the typical Gretsch exuberance. The appointments are typical of the '60s Gretsch guitars: two FilterTron pickups with the rare variant od the ‘open’ cover (which is basically a Hi-Lo Tron cover, but gold-plated),’space-roller’ bridge, Burns vibrato tailpiece, G-arrow knobs and oval-button Grover tuners, the very same model used on 6120s. Beside the pickup covers, this guitar has another peculiarity: a gold-finished, un-notched pickguard (the standard was black) and it's the second Jet Firebird from the same production batch that we have found with this style of guard (the other was serial no. 74838, this one is 74833). Everything appears to be original and in full working order. The guitar is light, especially if compared to a Les Paul, thanks to its ‘fake’ solid-body construction, with empty cavities - almost tonal chambers - hidden under the maple top. The electric circuitry is untouched and original. The original finish is in great shape both on top and back, with very light playing wear. The binding is in perfect conditions. The gold-plated parts show normal playing wear. The guitar comes with its original hardshell caseThe neck is rounded and very comfortable to play, with a fretboard in great condition and a low and easy action. The FilterTron sound is the unmistakable voice of these guitars, so american but so different: that great Gretsch look, for ‘That Great Gretsch Sound’.
