2024 Gretsch G6134TG Gold Paisley Penguin Bigsby Limited Edition
This is a Limited Edition Gretsch from 2024. Mint condition.
retsch guitars have long carried a reputation for flair, finesse, and that unmistakable blend of retro cool and forward-thinking innovation. The Limited Edition Paisley Penguin continues this tradition, and then some. Cloaked in a dazzling Gold Paisley Sparkle top with a subtle Gold Edge Burst, it is as much a showpiece as it is a tonal powerhouse—a rare bird built for the bold.
At first glance, the Paisley Penguin makes its presence known. The classic Jet-style body cut offers familiar comfort and balance, but the aesthetic is anything but conventional. The gold paisley finish sparkles under stage lights, giving way to a chambered mahogany body and arched maple top that marry visual dazzle with tonal depth. The chambering isn't just for weight relief; it opens up the tone with subtle resonance and a liveliness you can feel in your picking hand.
Every visual detail has been dialed to decadence. From the gold hardware to the jeweled G-Arrow knobs, and from the engraved gold Plexi pickguard featuring a Penguin graphic to the elegant Grover Imperial locking tuners, this instrument is nothing short of opulent. Yet for all its flash, there is nothing gaudy about it—this is refined Gretsch styling at its peak.
Official Features and Highlights:
-
Design That Dares to Shine: The Limited Edition Paisley Penguin offers an elegant take on a classic Gretsch design. This Penguin features a chambered mahogany body with an arched maple top that is gloriously adorned with a gold edge burst finish over a gold paisley and sparkle top.
-
TV Jones Filter'Tron Pickups: This Penguin isn't just about looks; it delivers classic Gretsch tone with modern muscle, thanks to a pairing of TV Jones TV Classic (neck) and TV Classic Plus (bridge) Filter'Tron pickups. These are the secret sauce behind the guitar's sparkling highs, scooped mids, and percussive attack. Whether you're aiming for articulate clean rhythms or snarling lead tones that slice through a dense mix, the Paisley Penguin responds with signature clarity and dynamic touch.
-
Versatile Controls: The combination of individual pickup volume controls, master volume with treble bleed circuit, and master tone provides intuitive global control and surgical tonal flexibility over your setup. Paired with a 3-way toggle, you'll find every pickup position usable and inspiring.
-
Performance from Headstock to Tailpiece: The mahogany neck features a standard "U" shape that offers a substantial yet ergonomic grip, while the 12-inch radius ebony fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo frets deliver a smooth playing surface. Luminlay side dots ensure you'll never lose your way, even on a dark stage.
-
Premium Hardware: The Bigsby B3GP String-Thru Vibrato not only adds vintage-tinged wobble and shimmer to your tone, but its string-thru design improves tuning stability and makes string changes less of a hassle. An Adjusto-Matic bridge with a pinned ebony base keeps everything firmly in place, transferring vibrations directly into the maple top for better sustain and clarity.
