Gruhn Guitars, Lefty Country Gent

Gretsch Country Gentleman, left-handed


Until we saw this guitar (inv. #EG2842), we would have told you that we had never seen a left-handed Gretsch Country Gentleman. That's how rare this instrument is.

The Country Gentleman was the top model in Gretsch's line of Chet Atkins-endorsed guitars, and this example was made in 1960, a year or so before the Country Gent went to the double-cutaway design.

The top is of beautifully figured curly maple. (SOLD).
