Gretsch Professional G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet - Natural Reviews
AC/DC's Malcolm Young has been described as "driving, deafening, and totally unstoppable" — his muscular riffs have cemented his place in the pantheon of esteemed rock 'n' roll rhythm guitarists for all time. The Professional G6131-MY Malcolm Young Signature Jet re-creates Mal's gutted ’63 Gretsch Jet Firebird, right down to the aged finish, tour-worn feel, and "DIY" pickup routes. Pick it up, and thunderous riffs will abound, thanks to a TV Jones Power'Tron bridge humbucker. And enjoy effortless playability, by way of a Standard U-shaped neck with a bound 12"-radius ebony fingerboard. The Malcolm Young Signature Jet includes a Space-Control bridge, a bone nut, and Schaller die-cast tuners.

Gretsch Malcolm Young
As an avid AC/DC fan and an average guitarist I wanted a guitar that would give me the AC/DC Malcolm Young thunderous tone! This Gretsch Malcolm Young Signature Model nails it! The playability, tone, attention to detail with the looks and sound is second none! This is a spectacular guitar. I fell in love with it the minute I unpacked it! Add the amazing service and customer care from Sweetwater and my tech Mike Godlove and the whole experience of purchasing this guitar was nothing short of amazing!
Wow
First of all, Chris at Sweetwater is fantastic. Chris has been helping me on my musical journey over the last 5 years. My friends all play in an AC/DC / Judas Priest Tribute band (Priest /DC) and Chris has been there time and time again to help. My first guitar purchase from Chris was the 1961 Reissue Gretsch Duo Jet and it has served me well over the past 2+ years. When I heard about the new Malcolm signature series, given what I play I had to have it. I just emailed Chris a few months ago, Chris put me on the list if there's a list. He replied back..Yep...you're on it! Ok....waiting game now. Yesterday Chris called...Ken, I got it and I just emailed pictures, are you still interested? Oh man....I wasn't expecting the "call" till November, but yeah..I want it. It's Thursday...who doesn't want a new guitar on Friday for the weekend? Chris said it was all ready to ship, so no sweat, it's on the way. It arrived an hour or so ago, and after some pictures for my friends, downstairs to the band room I went to plug it in. In my ears, the song I hear when I want to define Malcolm's tone (particularly early on) it's Overdose. So after a min to figure out all the knobs, I cracked the strings one by one....perfectly in tune from shipment, completely dialed in. And the tone? Oh yeah...it was biting and awesome. It just sounds so freaking amazing. My 61 Reissue is great...but this...wow. Hence the title. If you love Malcolm and want to play for fun or you play AC/DC songs in your band....You'll turn heads and ears with this guitar.
