Product Description
The Gretsch Custom Shop G6134-1958 Penguin Relic in Aged White is a stunning recreation of one of Gretsch’s rarest and most glamorous designs. Handcrafted by the Custom Shop’s elite luthiers, it blends luxurious vintage styling with meticulous modern craftsmanship to deliver a guitar that looks like a treasured 50s original and plays like a contemporary high-end instrument.
With its mahogany body, maple top and plain grain maple neck, this White Penguin Relic offers a rich, articulate voice that is perfect for everything from shimmering clean chords to punchy rockabilly riffs and rootsy rock. A pair of aged TV Jones Power’Tron pickups capture that classic Gretsch chime with added midrange authority, while the Synchro-Sonic bridge and Gretsch G Cadillac tailpiece provide rock-solid tuning stability and expressive feel. Finished with aged gold hardware, jewelled arrow knobs and a gold plexi Penguin pickguard, this is a true showpiece guitar that inspires every time you pick it up.
Custom Shop Craftsmanship
The Gretsch Custom Shop is the pinnacle of the brand’s build quality and attention to detail. Each G6134-1958 Penguin Relic is carefully crafted by Gretsch’s most experienced builders, ensuring tight tolerances, flawless fretwork and a perfectly set-up instrument straight out of the case. The relic treatment is artfully applied so the guitar looks and feels like a well-loved vintage original, without compromising structural integrity or playability.
Classic Penguin Construction
A mahogany body with a maple top delivers the depth and warmth associated with classic 50s guitars, while the maple adds snap and clarity for that unmistakable Gretsch sparkle. The plain grain maple neck and ebony fretboard combine for a smooth, fast playing surface with excellent note definition, ideal for intricate chord work and melodic lead lines. Vintage frets and the comfortable Standard Neck profile give an authentic old-school feel that is easy to play for long sessions.
TV Jones Power’Tron Pickups
Aged TV Jones Power’Tron pickups provide the perfect balance between vintage Gretsch jangle and a more muscular, humbucker-like punch. They offer tight low end, clear highs and a focused midrange that cuts through a mix, whether you are playing clean country licks, gritty blues or overdriven rock. The comprehensive control layout with individual volumes, master volume and tone switch lets you fine-tune your sound on the fly.
Luxurious Vintage Aesthetic
From the aged white finish and gold sparkle binding to the jewelled arrow knobs and gold plexi Penguin pickguard, every detail of this guitar screams 50s glamour. Gold plated Grover Imperial machine heads with stairstep buttons not only look stunning but also offer smooth, precise tuning. Aged gold hardware and smooth pickup surrounds complete the period-correct look, making this Penguin Relic as much a visual statement as it is a serious professional instrument.
