Gretsch G6134TG-58 Limited Edition 1958 Custom Penguin Emerald Night with Case
As a longtime Gretsch dealer, we've had some amazing Penguins here - but sometimes one comes in that really grabs our attention. That's the case with this new Limited Edition version, in a stunning finish called Emerald Night.
The Limited Edition 1958 Custom Penguin offers an alluring take on a classic Gretsch design. Featuring the dark and mysterious Emerald Night metallic finish, this Penguin combines period-accurate features with some modern twists thrown in. A mahogany body with vintage chambering and TV Jones® Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Tron™ pickups provide all the twang, growl, and power you need to cut through the mix, making this rare bird a formidable companion as you embark on your own sonic adventures.
As great as it looks in the photos, it's even better in person!
Maple Top with Chambered Mahogany Body
The Limited Edition 1958 Custom Penguin™ features an arched maple top and a mahogany body with vintage chambering, which magnifies harmonic richness by letting air resonate between the top and body for a livelier and more articulate tone.
TV Jones Ray Butts Ful-Fidelity Filter’Tron™ Pickups
A faithful reproduction of the original “Ful-Fidelity” Filter’Tron pickups invented by the legendary Ray Butts, these pickups are made according to Ray's personal notes and designs, and TV Jones' extensive multi-decade analysis of original Filter'Tron pickups. They produce a tighter bass response and slightly more top end than modern Filter’Tron pickups, and the absence of wax potting results in a more open, three-dimensional sound with truly unique sparkle and exceptional dynamics.
Classic & Modern Features
Designed for pure tone and slick, comfortable playing feel, this guitar features a mix of the classic and modern appointments that Gretsch fans have come to love - jeweled G-Arrow control knobs, gold sparkle binding with multi-ply purfling, Mother of Pearl Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, Luminlay® side dots, gold vintage thick plexi pickguard with ghosted Gretsch logo and Penguin graphic, Bigsby® B3GP String-Thru vibrato tailpiece, Space Control™ bridge with pinned ebony base, bone nut, and Grover® Imperial™ tuning machines. A resurrected blast from the past with elegantly refined style and sound, the 1958 Custom Penguin is sure to satisfy any player’s desire for something that sets them apart from the crowd.
