Gretsch / G6122-1962 Country Classic II / 1999 / Walnut / Guitar
|
The Country Classic II has been mainly related to George Harrison, but it actually admits a big variety of styles from jazz to blues or rockabilly, both for rythms & lead. They’re actually reissued as 6122-1962 Chet Atkins Country Gentleman, but this is a pre-Fender, different story. It is in absolutely pristine condition (we often wonder how that’s possible... Don’t people play these?! Gee..). The pre-Fender models have a replaceable backpad. The the original is included, but it does show some wear. We include a replacement in case you want to save it (though it’s a modern one and doesn’t fit as smooth as the original). The back cover still has the factory protective plastic on! OHSC included.

Guitar Giraffe, Spain 
In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
