The G6118T-140 Anniversary™ guitar features a 16-inch-wide hollow body with a solid Adirondack Red Spruce top, laminated maple back and sides and '59 trestle bracing.

All-New FT-67 Filter’Tron Pickups

It’s powered by the all-new FT-67 Filter'Tron™ humbucking pickups, which were designed to capture authentic vintage Gretsch voicing but with a more well-rounded tone for modern playing styles. This powerful pair of pickups provide open and pristine top-end chime, glassy midrange, robust low end, and balanced harmonics for tone that blends seamlessly with other instruments.

Versatile Controls

The combination of individual pickup volume controls, master no-load tone and master volume with treble bleed circuit provides intuitive global control over your pickup and tone settings.

Exclusive 140th Anniversary Aesthetics

The G6118T-140 features an opulent 2-Tone Pure Platinum over Stone Platinum finish, adorned with matching pickguard and pickup bezels, jeweled G-Arrow control knobs, and a commemorative 140th Anniversary plaque on the matching headstock to create a look and style as big and unmistakable as its sound.
