Are you a cowboy? If so, then why don’t you own this guitar? Just buy it now; this is your destiny! The Gretsch Round Up G6130 (sometimes G6121) was the idol of my eye for the longest time, and when I got the chance to get one I jumped. A Duo Jet with leather trim? Western motif inlays and a branded G on the guitar? It’s as if John Wayne himself designed it (he definitely did not)! It is in great condition and I tried to capture that as best as I could in the photos; there is some slight marking on the body that is hard to capture with my phone camera but it is unnoticeable in regular light (you could honestly buff it out and it'd be fine). I replaced the Melita/syncrosonic it came with with a rocking bar bridge (you will get both bridges), I replaced the stock spring with a much friendlier Reverend spring (you will get both springs), you’ll get a Gretsch String Change Buddy (you’ll thank me later for that one), and you will also get a matching strap! What’s not to love? It comes with the case, papers, as well as the fixed arm if you decide to keep it 100% old school with this bad boy (you will also receive the friendlier rotating arm as shown in the pictures). I hope you fulfill your dreams of being the wildest cowboy in all of guitardom!
