Gretsch 6122 Country Classic, walnut stain, made in Japan in 1996. The Country Classic II is the 90s-era version of the classic Country Gentleman, which launched in 1957 as a signature model for country trailblazer Chet Atkins. The 6122 Gent was originally envisioned as a more deluxe offering than the already established 6120 Nashville model, with a slightly slimmer body for comfort, a slimmer neck, gold hardware and a fancy walnut finish. This was made in the 'rebirth years' period, after Fred Gretsch Jr purchased the family business back from Baldwin Co in 1989, but before he then sold on to Fender in 2001. It's a really engaging instrument to play, it just feels and sounds so alive. The neck is pretty slim, which combined with the lush ebony board makes for a slick feel.
