Product Description
The Gretsch G6136TG-58 Limited Edition 1958 Custom Falcon with Bigsby in Nightbird Emerald is a stunning reimagining of one of the most iconic hollow body guitars ever made. Built in Japan as part of the Professional Collection, it combines classic late 50s Falcon styling with modern precision, premium hardware and boutique-level TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter'Tron pickups for a rich, articulate voice that is perfect for everything from shimmering clean chords to punchy rockabilly and rootsy blues.
With its fully hollow laminated Maple body, 1959 trestle bracing and elegant single cutaway, this Falcon delivers the airy resonance and huge acoustic presence Gretsch are famous for, while remaining controllable at higher volumes. The smooth Maple neck and Ebony fingerboard offer a fast, luxurious playing surface, complemented by Mother of Pearl Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays and Luminlay side dots that keep you on track under stage lights. Finished in a deep Nightbird Emerald with gold hardware and a Bigsby B6GP string-thru tailpiece, it is every bit as eye-catching as it is inspiring to play.
Under the hood, a pair of TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter'Tron pickups capture the chime, snap and warmth of the earliest Filter'Trons with exceptional clarity and dynamic response. Combined with individual pickup volume controls, a master volume and a three-position tone switch, the G6136TG-58 offers a wide palette of usable sounds at your fingertips, whether you are comping jazz, twanging country lines or driving a cranked amp.
This limited edition Falcon is aimed at players who want a professional-grade hollow body that feels special every time it comes out of the case. From the Grover Imperial tuners and Space Control bridge to the bound F-holes and flawless Japanese craftsmanship, every detail is designed to deliver a premium playing experience and a timeless look that will turn heads on any stage.
TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter'Tron Pickups
The TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter'Tron pickups are designed to recreate the sound of the earliest Filter'Trons with remarkable accuracy. They deliver bright, open highs, tight lows and a clear, present midrange that sits perfectly in a mix. Whether you are running clean or pushing your amp into overdrive, they retain definition and note separation, making complex chords and intricate lines ring out with ease.
1959 Trestle Bracing and Laminated Maple Body
The fully hollow laminated Maple body with 1959 trestle bracing gives this Falcon its signature combination of resonance, sustain and feedback control. The arched top and back help project a big, three-dimensional tone, while the internal bracing adds focus and stability, allowing you to use more gain and volume before feedback becomes an issue. It is ideal for players who want classic hollow body character with modern reliability on stage.
Ebony Fingerboard and Comfortable Standard U Neck
A Maple neck with a Standard U profile and 12 inch radius Ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, comfortable feel that suits both chord work and lead playing. The Ebony adds snap and immediacy to the attack, while the medium jumbo frets make bending and vibrato feel effortless. Mother of Pearl Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays give you that unmistakable Gretsch look, and Luminlay side dots help you stay oriented in low light environments.
Bigsby B6GP String-Thru and Premium Hardware
The Bigsby B6GP string-thru tailpiece offers smooth, expressive vibrato with improved tuning stability and easier string changes compared to traditional Bigsby designs. Paired with a Space Control bridge and Grover Imperial tuners, the hardware is built for precise intonation and reliable performance. The gold finish throughout ties in perfectly with the Nightbird Emerald colour, giving the guitar a luxurious, vintage-inspired aesthetic.
