This Gretsch Custom Shop Masterbuilt G6120CST-R Nashville Relic by Chad Henrichsen in Orange is brand new. The Gretsch Custom Shop makes the finest guitars to ever bear the Gretsch logo. It is based on a classic Chet Atkins model but with the expertise and know-how that only a Masterbuilder can deliver.

Chad Henrichsen joined the Gretsch Custom Shop in 2008, after spending four years with Fender as a guitar tech and, later, group lead of quality control/inspection.
Henrichsen brings that developed eye for subtle nuances and perfection to the Gretsch Custom Shop, where he specializes in crafting custom necks.
A tinkerer at heart, Henrichsen enjoys woodworking, modifying amps, fixing cars, and building computers. Proficient on the guitar, bass, piano, and drums, he says he takes the most pride in being challenged by requests from artists like Zac Brown (Custom Falcon and Custom Penguin), or Cheap Trick’s Tom Petersson (Custom 12-string bass), or Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (Billy-Bo).
“I enjoy taking things apart just to see how they work and thinking of the different ways they could be made. So naturally, I enjoy a build request that is outside the norm, which makes me figure out how to make it work.”
Loaded with a pair of TV Jones T-Armond Pickups, this guitar delivers all the bell-like chime and top-end sweetness you could ever want. It is a lively, resonant guitar that produces a strong acoustic tone, making it an inspiring playing experience, even when unplugged.
