For those about to rock, here is this amazing guitar! This Gretsch G-6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet is a tribute to to one of the most influential rhythm guitar players and song writers in rock history, the late great Malcolm Young.
The G6131-MY pays homage to Youngs 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 rocks 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 PowerTron pickup.
Malcolm Youngs fiery rock n roll spirit lives on through AC/DCs enduringly timeless music, and this finely crafted instrument bearing his name.
