Full Description

Powerful, clear sound

The Gretsch Falcon Hollow Body features PRO-FT Filter'Tron humbucking pickups, designed to deliver a powerful and clear sound. These flagship pickups capture the classic Gretsch tone, making this guitar perfect for a variety of musical styles. Whether you're playing rock, jazz, or country, the Falcon provides the versatility and definition you need.

Rich resonance and depth

The 17-inch wide, 2.5-inch deep maple body with Arc-Tone bracing offers a rich, resonant tone with exceptional depth. This construction enhances the guitar's natural acoustics, providing a strong, balanced sound that stands out in any performance setting. The body design ensures that both lows and highs are well-defined, creating a dynamic playing experience.

Effortless playability

Featuring a standard U-shaped maple neck and a 12-inch radius ebony fingerboard with rolled edges, the Falcon Hollow Body ensures comfortable playability. The fingerboard is designed for smooth finger movement and easy chord transitions, while the medium jumbo frets and pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays add to the guitar's vintage appeal. Luminlay side dots provide visibility in low-light conditions.

Total tonal control

The Falcon offers extensive tonal control with its three-position pickup toggle switch, individual volume controls for the neck and bridge pickups, a master volume with treble bleed circuit, and a master no-load tone control with "Squeezebox" capacitor. The string-thru Bigsby B6GP vibrato tailpiece ensures smooth, reliable vibrato action, while the Adjusto-Matic bridge on a pinned ebony base and Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut enhance tuning stability. Grover Imperial locking tuners and Grover strap locks provide additional reliability for professional use.
