Woodstock Guitars

Introduced in 1954 as the 6136, the White Falcon was “simply the most beautiful guitar in the world” according to the company literature of the day. With its copious amounts of 24k gold-plated hardware, ebony fretboard, multilayer white Duco finish, multiple gold sparkle binding and inlays, it’s hard to disagree!

With this guitar’s small f-holes, B6GW Bigsby, non ’59 trestle bracing, and uniquely shaped pickguard (which differs from any other model in the Gretsch lineup), this reissue of the Baldwin era White Falcon is more Billy Duff of The Cult than it is Neil Young and Stephen Stills.

The guitar is in excellent condition with only normal playwear. Includes original hardshell case.
