Description
1964 Gretsch SilverJet double-cutaway, original and in fine condition, with included 1964 Gretsch amplifier.
The 1964 Gretsch Silver-Jet is even rarer than the scarce 1950s models. Gretsch had removed the Silver-Jet from its line of electrics in 1962 when they switched to the double-cutaway body design. After that the SilverJet could only be ordered by special request -- making double-cutaway Model 6129s (like the \'64 you see here) exceedingly rare today.
With its powerful and original \"FilterTron\" humbucking pickups, 22-fret fingerboard, plus a myriad of advanced switching and tone circuitry (new for the double-cutaway Jet models) guitarists were wowed with a terrific span of expression. And of course the striking sparkle finish still mesmerizes audiences to this day.
Included with the SilverJet is an all-original 1964 Gretsch 6150-T amplifier, original from its speaker, gleaming control panel, tremolo circuit, to all the components inside and out. Plus it’s in truly near-mint condition. Its small size and big sound are perfect for home or on the road. It’s believed that only two dozen or so double-cut SilverJets were ever made. We haven’t seen another up for acquisition in many years.
Also included with the set of 1964 SilverJet guitar and original 1964 amp: a vintage Gretsch catalog, tags, plus cards, strap, vintage price list and more, and the original gray hard-case.
Rare 1964 Gretsch Model 6129 SilverJet double-cutaway guitar, in original case, with all accessories, and included 1964 Gretsch 6150-T amplifier.
