Happy Birthday to Mr Guitar himself, Chet Atkins.

Whether it was accompanying the Carter Family on the Grand Ole' Opry or honing his session chops in Nashville, this guitar icon was also working closely with Gretsch in New York to refine a premium archtop model. At Chet's request the western motif on the earlier 6120s was toned down, while still retaining the horseshoe headstock inlay as a nod to the previous versions - which became a lasting aesthetic change.

Read up more over on the website about this '59 Edition 6120 or swing by the shop today and check it out.

This Ladybird takes the Collings build quality and engineering prowess and focuses it on a whole new realm of vintage guitar. Featuring a fully hollow poplar body paired with a poplar neck, this is a warm, subtle guitar that can take on everything from a shoegaze-y, lush reverb vibes to an Americana/roots edge-of-break up sound. Due to the Collings reengineered, vintage-inspired '60s design, this new model has a quick decay to the note, with a full punchy attack that makes it a real joy to play. Every choice, from the use of poplar to the rosewood bridge and fingerboard help to accentuate the unique tonal qualities of this Collings build.

It’s always a good day when we’re prepping one vintage guitar to ship out as another one walks in the door.

The day we shipped out our 1959 Stratocaster (top), this absolutely stunning 1965 Stratocaster (bottom) walked in the door. 100% original, with original electronics, pickups, pickguard, finish, tuners etc, this is an amazing example of the beginnings of the CBS-era at Fender.

We’re still getting the ‘65 ready for the web, but reach out this week with any questions on this stunning vintage guitar.
