Gretsch Masterbuilt 1955 Penguin G6134CS by Stephen Stern 2014

As expected from a Stephen Stern Masterbuilt Gretsch, the build quality is immaculate. The guitar features a chunky “C”-shaped mahogany neck with soft, rounded shoulders, offering a comfortable and vintage-correct feel. Action is low and even across the sleek ebony fingerboard, with exceptional note clarity and sustain.

Equipped with Seymour Duncan DynaSonic pickups & meticulous recreations of the vintage DeArmonds, the White Penguin delivers a brilliantly chiming clean tone, with bold, rounded lows and shimmering highs. When driven, they snarl with unmistakable Gretsch character: midrange bite, articulate definition, and a touch of vintage grit.

This is Gretsch Custom Shop quality through and through built with an astounding level of precision, tone, and timeless elegance.
