You’re not a real cowboy if you’re not playing a guitar with cactus and steer-head inlays. And if you really want to be the baddest rustler on the range you need this one – probably the earliest example of a Gretsch 6121. Available now on Reverb this one looks like the real deal. S/N 16453.

Definitely worth a read!
