Made famous by George Harrison of The Beatles, the 1962 Country Gentleman is the legendary sound of rock ‘n’ roll. The G6122T-62 Vintage Select Edition '62 Chet Atkins® Country Gentleman® Hollow Body with Bigsby® captures that unmistakable style and tone that launched a musical revolution. Loaded with a pair of TV Jones® Classic pickups, this hollow body delivers refined, articulate sound that adapts beautifully to any musical setting. Traditional Gretsch controls and upgraded "Squeezebox" capacitors allow for endless tonal exploration, while the sealed laminated maple body with simulated F-holes minimizes feedback without sacrificing vintage character.

A stable pinned rocking bar bridge, Bigsby B6G vibrato tailpiece, and bone nut ensure tuning stability, while the fast-playing maple neck and ebony fingerboard offer a luxurious playing experience. From its classic appointments to its unforgettable tone, this guitar is a true rock 'n' roll essential.
