Gretsch Custom Shop 2011 MBS G6134CS 1959 Penguin NOS by Stephen Stern

This Masterbuilt 'G6134CS 1959 Penguin NOS' model was crafted by former Master Builder Stephen Stern.

This guitar has a bright Fiesta Red finish and features a G-tailpiece, gold-sparkle binding and a vertical logo on the headstock, giving it a luxurious appearance.

The original TV Jones TV Classic pickups have been replaced with TV Jones T-Armond models, and removable mounting hardware and screw holes have been added. (The original TV Jones TV Classic pickups are included.)

There are multiple scuffs, pinholes and weather checking across the entire body, as well as a buckle mark on the back, a faint stand mark on the end of the body, slight paint melting and shallow dents on the sides of the body, slight paint wear on the tip of the headstock, corrosion and tarnish on the metal parts, and a crack in the escutcheon.

There is very slight wear on the low positions of the second and third strings, but over 80% of the frets remain overall. The neck and truss rod are in good condition and the instrument plays well.
