Tom Lee Music has guitar plus all the Gretsch memorabilia anyone could want
When Fred Gretsch Jr. convinced Chet Atkins to endorse his guitars, the best years of the Gretsch guitars followed with great hollow body guitars, including the classic Country Gentleman. My old guitar teacher sold his two years ago for more than $6,000.
The single cut 5120G isn’t quite the Country Gentleman but it also goes for a more affordable price – generally around $700 to $900 for a new one. The guitars are made under license by Fender in Japan and Korea. They get generally excellent reviews from guitar players. There is no mistaking the twangy sound of a Gretsch electric hollow body guitar.
I was intrigued by a bundle of the Gretsch 5120G with the hard shell case for $1,199 at Tom Lee Music in Vancouver, BC. No one else has this deal.
For $1,199 you get the guitar and case plus: autographed Fred Gretsch photo, 24 inch bar stool, bolo tie, 200pc poker set, fire trucker hat, pint glasses set of 4, Ride ’em strap, license plate and mug. That’s it! Everything you need in one package. The case is the Hardshell Gretsch Cowboy Case. The case with the guitar equals the price. Oh, and it comes with the Bigsby. The memorabilia is free. Video after the break.
No one else has this package so if you are interested in a rare Gretsch guitar with the country trimmings, this is it.
