Custom Gretsch 6122 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman 1971

Beautiful Gretsch Country Gentleman, model 6122. As far as we can gather from the serial number it's from October, 1971.

This classic guitar is in great condition, has a few very small cosmetic marks from the years. Frets are worn down quite a bit and eventually it will need a fret job.
The cover on the case is loosening a bit, but as far as we know it's the original case. Tried to capture all of the important bits in the pictures.

Fun fact: The original owner of this guitar had a personalized letter from Fred Gretsch that's been kept in the case compartment.

Please feel free to make an offer.
Thanks.
