Description

The Gretsch Custom Shop Masterbuilt Gonzalo Madrigal G6136-54 White Falcon in Heavy Relic Vintage White is a true collector's treasure and a pinnacle of Gretsch craftsmanship. As one of the rarest Gretsch models on the market, this White Falcon isn't merely an instrument; it's a work of art brought to life by the hands of master luthier Gonzalo Madrigal in Gretsch's exclusive Custom Shop. Being the only access to USA-made Gretsch guitars, the Custom Shop series provides the ultimate Gretsch experience, embodying vintage heritage, superior build quality, and unmatched attention to detail.

This G6136-54 White Falcon features a rare heavy relic finish, giving it an authentically worn-in aesthetic and enhancing its vintage appeal. The careful relic work extends across the body and the back of the neck, allowing a comfortable and "played-in" feel that resonates with guitarists who value an authentic vintage vibe. The four-year wait time on this custom order alone speaks to its exclusivity and the commitment involved in crafting such a masterpiece, a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistry that defines the Gretsch Custom Shop.

Comparing this model to the standard Custom Shop G6136CST, several upgrades make this White Falcon unique. Firstly, the solid spruce top replaces the standard arched laminated maple, adding resonance and clarity to its sound profile. This significant choice of tonewood brings a new level of warmth and depth that complements the guitar's vintage-inspired tones. The bone nut offers superior sustain and tuning stability compared to the Delrin nut seen in other models, enhancing performance and sound quality. Furthermore, this White Falcon is equipped with a Synchro-Sonic bridge, which offers enhanced tuning stability and intonation compared to the standard Space Control bridge, allowing players to achieve that classic Gretsch sound with unparalleled precision.

The G6136-54 also includes an array of period-correct specifications inspired by the 1954 White Falcon, including gold sparkle and multi-layer white-black binding, gold-plated Grover Imperial machine heads with stairstep buttons, and a Gretsch Bigsby tailpiece. The ebony fretboard is inlaid with exquisite mother-of-pearl "hump-top" engravings, adding a touch of elegance to the instrument's aesthetics. Every component, from the vintage fret wire to the solid plain grain maple neck with a comfortable Fat "C" profile, has been meticulously chosen to replicate the feel of a true 1954 White Falcon.

The Duncan DynaSonic DeArmond pickups in both the neck and bridge positions add depth, clarity, and articulation, capturing the legendary Gretsch sound and delivering it in all its tonal richness. With a thoughtfully designed wiring layout, players can adjust their tone with a master volume, individual neck and bridge volumes, a pickup selector switch, and a tone control, making it versatile for multiple playing styles. Additionally, the jewelled plain-top knobs and the Falcon-engraved pickguard provide finishing touches that cement this model's iconic, custom-crafted feel.

The Gretsch Custom Shop Masterbuilt Gonzalo Madrigal G6136-54 White Falcon in Heavy Relic Vintage White is a perfect choice for serious collectors and players who seek both aesthetic beauty and professional-grade performance. It not only captures the essence of a bygone era but also ensures that every note resonates with unmatched clarity, warmth, and brilliance.
