A guitar must suit the player. This Stephen Stills Signature Falcon does exactly that. The Gretsch G6136 is an icon in itself. This guitar mirrors the original Stephen Stills' Falcon from 1958, which makes the instrument even more iconic.
The maple body has a beautiful aged white finish with gold-sparkle binding and oversize F-holes. On top lies a gold-plated adjustable bridge and ofcourse, the Bigsby B6G vibrato tailpiece. The three-piece maple neck features a ebony fingerboard with Neo-Classic inlays and Stills' signature inlaid between the 18th and 21st frets. Crowned with the recognizable Gretsch Headstock with the gold sparkle Gretsch headstock logo.
The dual High Sensitive Filter'Tron humbucking pickups make it sound as if you are back in the times where Buffalo Springfield roamed the stages next to Jefferson Airplane and Tom Petty. The humbuckers are controlled with a classic tone-switch circuitry by the Falcon volume knobs with red rhinestone markers.
Apart from some minor playwear this 2011 guitar is in excellent shape. You can see a but of bucklewear on the back of the guitar and the lacquer on the tailpiece has a bit of fading.
