Relic Copy of Malcolm's Jet!  This is really Cool. You are looking at a 2024 Gretsch Professional Series G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet Electric Guitar. Gretsch honors the late Malcolm Young, whose rock-solid rhythm guitar swagger and songwriting provided the unshakable foundation for monumental rock titans AC/DC. Malcolm Young’s fiery rock ‘n’ roll spirit lives on through AC/DC’s enduringly timeless music, and it is Gretsch’s great privilege to pay fitting tribute to him with a finely crafted instrument bearing his name. This Guitar has never been sold before. It was used at Gretsch's Corporate office for Internet Sales Videos, Print Media and brochure photos. It is in "Like New" Condition. It is being sold as a used guitar. From The Web: The G6131-MY pays homage to Young’s famously battle-hardened Gretsch Jet. Nicknamed “The Beast,” Malcolm certainly made the instrument his own, not least by removing two of the three pickups, stripping away the finish, and pounding out some of the hardest and most memorable rhythms the world has heard.This models features the essential hallmarks of one of rock’s most iconic instruments including “DIY” pickup routes with simulated screw holes, chrome switch plugs, Space-Control™ bridge and ‘60s-style tailpiece. Open-cavity thunder roars from the thin-skin satin finished chambered mahogany body and is magnified by a high-output TV Jones Power’Tron pickup. Chambered mahogany body for harmonically rich toneFor the Professional G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet, Gretsch starts with a select 2"-thick mahogany body that delivers tremendous warmth and resonance. Strategic body chambering provides smooth attack and extended, harmonically lush bandwidth while reducing weight — which you'll definitely appreciate during marathon gigs! This chambered design, key to the Malcolm Young Signature Jet's thunderous sound, serves as a tonal foundation that's then given a high-dose amphetamine injection by the guitar's lone humbucking pickup. Beefy TV Jones Power'Tron pickupThe Professional G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet is powered by a TV Jones Power'Tron pickup. TV Jones Power'Trons meld the smooth, silken voice of a golden-age PAF with the rockabilly twang of the late-'50s/early-'60s Filter'Tron. This humbucker boasts a full body and clear top end that dynamic players are sure to enjoy. Digging in reveals a chunky low-end breakup that sounds great through a tube amp. The secret is a narrow bobbin aperture that keeps bass notes tight and punchy, along with specially spaced pole screws for clean note separation from string to string. Compared to a TV Classic, the Power'Tron is darker and somewhat gnarlier, with more windings — as much as a PAF humbucker — for hotter output. "The Beast" is unleashedThe Professional G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet is a meticulous re-creation of Malcolm's ’63 Gretsch Jet Firebird, a.k.a. "The Beast." It not only employs a thin-skin semi-gloss finish for a tour-worn feel, but it also comes fully loaded with Gretsch's patented Space-Control bridge on an ebony base, along with eye-popping "G" arrow knobs and a '60s Jet Vibrato tailpiece. You also get "DIY" pickup routes with simulated screw holes, just like Malcolm's original. Add to that eye-catching Neo-Classic thumbnail fingerboard inlays and aged-white binding, and you've got yourself one killer instrument. So strap the Malcolm Young Signature Jet on your shoulder — you'll not only be making music, but you'll also be making a fashion statement. “DIY” pickup routes with simulated screw holesChrome switch plugsTV Jones® Power’Tron™ bridge pickupDouble-cutaway chambered mahogany body with maple topAged-white bindingBound ebony fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and Neo-Classic™ thumbnailsGretsch '60s Jet™ tailpieceSpace-Control™ bridge, bone nut and Schaller® die-cast tunersAvailable in Aged Natural stain with black back and sidesThin-skin semi-gloss finish for a true “tour-worn” feelG6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet Electric Guitar Specifications:  Body:Body shape: Double cutawayBody type: Semi-hollow or chambered bodyBody material: Solid woodTop wood: MapleBody wood: MahoganyBody finish: Semi-Gloss LacquerOrientation: Right handedNeck:Neck shape: UNeck wood: MahoganyJoint: Set-inScale length: 24.6 in.Truss rod: Dual-actionNeck finish: Semi-Gloss LacquerFingerboard:Material: EbonyRadius: 12 in.Fret size: JumboNumber of frets: 22Inlays: ThumbnailNut width/material 1.687 in.
