The G6134T-58 pairs a chambered mahogany body with TV Jones Ray Butts Filter’Trons, giving the single-cut a finish that leans into Gretsch’s vintage pageantry.
A 27-inch scale and coil-split humbuckers bring the CVT closer to its visual promise, though only one finish is on offer.
The new CVT Baritone and Baritone Jet take the brand’s mid-priced range toward doom, sludge and metal, without losing the build details that earned these models their long-running reputation.
