The Gretsch G6120W-1957 Nashville Western is a classic hollow-body electric guitar, known for its striking Western Orange finish, laminated maple body with "G" brand, iconic horseshoe headstock, western-themed inlays (cactus, steerheads, etc.), and Bigsby tremolo. This model includes details based on modifications Eddie Cochran made to his Gretsch, including a dog-ear (P90 style) neck pickup and a DynaSonic bridge pickup.
