The oversprayed neck is glossy and smooth, with some filled holes visible on the back of the headstock. The ebony fretboard also has various light scratches, which do not affect playability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23413\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: The guitar plays well with low action, and the narrow frets show only mild play wear. The guitar has a 1957-style serial number label inside the switch cavity; the serial number dates to 1957 and the model is listed as a 6130. However, the construction appointments, including the headstock and fretboard inlays, body control routes, and lack of a \"G\" branding, suggest the guitar is actually a 6121 from 1959. The label may have been replaced or could be a holdover from the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838556365119,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G38109529","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/gretsch-electric-guitars-solid-body-gretsch-6121-natural-1959-gretsch-6121-natural-1959-u7040167705-1166686425.jpg?v=1782094368","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/gretsch-6121-natural-1959-2297577","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
