2023 marked the "Double Platinum" Anniversary for the Gretsch brand. To commemorate 140 years of unmistakable sound, Gretsch proudly presents the Limited Edition G6118T-140 Anniversary Hollow Body - a guitar that honors its past while providing the power & voice for the next generation of visionary players. Powered by the all-new FT-67 Filter'Tron humbucking pickups, which were designed to capture authentic vintage Gretsch voicing but with a more well-rounded tone for modern playing styles.

Fully inspected & professionally set up ready to play straight out of the case.
