Built on the same body neck style as the highly sought-after Chet Atkins model 6120 these 6117's are often under-appreciated guitars, with the same \"Great Gretsch Sound\". This early example also has the \"trestle braced\" body construction with the top bracing arching down to meet the back, an especially desirable feature (it results in a stronger, tighter sounding guitar with much more resistance to feedback) only used on Gretsch guitars during this 1958-61 period. The neck on this guitar is an unusual 5-piece laminate seen only around this time, also sometimes encountered on 6120's. This is one of the best sounding and playing Gretsch's we have had, a real honey with a singing sound.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 42 in. (106.7 cm.), 15 1\/2 in.
