The Gretsch Custom Shop never disappoints when it comes to delivering jaw-dropping electric guitar craft, and it wasn't going to let the lack of a Summer NAMM show stop it creating a speculator brace of 2020 models for European dealers.
Demand for these models is so high Gretsch has a lottery system to allocate the guitars to dealers. These models are now winging their way to the lucky European guitar retailers who were successful (see below to find out where you can buy them) and you can hear each one below too…
