Description
The Gretsch Falcon Center Block LTD in Midnight Sapphire is a showstopper made for players who crave classic Falcon style with modern punch and performance. Whether you're a gigging pro or a studio regular, this guitar is built to deliver bold tones, rock-solid playability, and visual flair that commands attention. As part of Gretsch's Professional Collection, this limited edition Falcon reimagines one of the most iconic hollowbody guitars of all time; now retooled with a sleek center block design and deeper cutaways for enhanced performance and comfort.
At its core, the Falcon Center Block LTD is all about tonal authority and versatility. It features a redesigned Channel Core center block made from a maple and spruce blend, engineered for fast attack and focused midrange. Paired with a set of TV Jones TV Classic and Classic Plus Filter'Tron pickups, this guitar roars with vintage chime and growl, while offering plenty of bite for rockabilly, blues, jazz, and modern rock. The three-way toggle and comprehensive volume/tone layout, including a treble bleed circuit and no-load tone control with a Squeezebox capacitor, give you the power to dial in your sound with surgical precision-on stage or in the studio.
From a player's perspective, this guitar is designed to feel as good as it sounds. The standard "U"-shaped maple neck sports a smooth gloss finish and a 12" radius ebony fingerboard, complete with rolled edges, medium jumbo frets, and Pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays. Luminlay side dots help keep you locked in under low light, while the Graph Tech TUSQ nut and Gotoh locking tuners keep things stable no matter how hard you hit that Bigsby B7GP tailpiece.
Visually, the Midnight Sapphire finish and gold sparkle binding give this Falcon a striking elegance, accented by a gold plexi pickguard with Gretsch and Falcon graphics. Every detail is dialed for impact-from the jeweled G-Arrow knobs to the gold Grover Imperial tuners, this guitar wears its high-end status with pride.
At Cream City Music, we're seriously impressed with what Gretsch has done here. This Limited Edition Falcon brings together tradition, innovation, and boutique-level appointments into one stunning instrument. It's bold, refined, and ready to inspire.
