Duane Eddy was a prolific studio and live musician who, in the late 1950s and early 1960s, had a string of hit records including "Rebel-'Rouser", "Peter Gunn", and "Because They're Young". When Gretsch created their G6120DE Duane Eddy signature model, they set out to preserve as much of the feel and style of Eddy's original 1957 G6120 archtop as possible. They started by giving the G6120DE Duane Eddy a 3-piece maple neck with the exact profile (and headstock) as Eddy's prized G6120. Along with a bound rosewood fingerboard, this unique neck profile gives you an incredibly smooth feel and delightfully fast action. The 3-ply maple body features include twin DynaSonic single-coil pickups, Tru-Arc "rocking" bar bridge, lacquer finish, and trestle bracing.. just like Duane's! Gretsch branded hardshell case included.
