1964 Gretsch – 6132 Corvette – 4+2 Headstock – ID 4572

This Gretsch 6132 Corvette is a great player instrument that has nothing to hide from any SG. Himself Rory Gallagher appreciated one. Gretsch launched this short-lived model to compete with Fender and Gibson solidbody electric guitars such as the Tele and Junior. They were available with one or two pickups and a Bigsby-like vibrato.
The body incl. glued-in neck (with the rare 2+4 headstock) dates from 1964 according to the serial number. The red has now completely faded.
