Designed in cooperation with Chet Atkins’ longtime rhythm guitarist and close friend, Paul Yandell, the G6122-1959 Country Gentleman precisely replicates the world’s most famous ’59 6122 model—one of Atkins' personal favorite guitars. Its features include handmade TV Jones custom pickups, a slightly wider neck, Bigsby B6GWST vibrato tailpiece with stationary arm and optional swivel arm. Play with all the suavity and elan of a true country gentleman!
