Description

The Limited Edition Paisley Penguin™ reimagines a beloved Gretsch classic with refined elegance and bold visual flair. Its chambered mahogany body and arched maple top are dressed in a stunning black edge burst finish, layered over a shimmering black paisley and silver sparkle top that demands attention under the lights.

Under the hood, a pair of TV Jones® TV Classic pickups deliver the perfect blend of vintage-inspired tone and modern clarity. With bright, cutting highs, a touch of growl, and just the right amount of twang, they recall the sound of late-’50s Filter’Trons—making this guitar a natural fit for punchy rock riffs, jangly country grooves, and everything in between. Stylish, sonically versatile, and unmistakably Gretsch.
