Description
The Limited Edition Falcon Center Block Jr. isn't just a refined take on a Gretsch icon; it's a bold reimagining for players who crave vintage style in a more compact, high-performance format. Designed for discerning guitarists who want the elegance and tone of a classic Falcon without the full-body heft, this scaled-down stunner brings boutique flair and undeniable stage presence. From rockabilly purists to indie tone sculptors, this rare Roundup Orange beauty delivers something truly special.
At the heart of its sonic brilliance lies a quilted maple top paired with a mahogany body, giving you a warm yet articulate voice that's as rich as its looks. The redesigned Channel Core center block-crafted from a blend of maple and spruce-enhances midrange punch and quickens note attack, making this Falcon sing with clarity and focus even at high gain. With a TV Jones TV Classic Plus in the bridge and a TV Classic in the neck, the guitar dishes out everything from chimey cleans to growling retro grit; ideal for roots rock, blues, and modern alternative tones.
The Standard "U" mahogany neck and 12" radius ebony fretboard provide smooth, confident playability across all 22 medium jumbo frets, while Luminlay side dots keep you on track under stage lights. An Adjusto-Matic bridge on a pinned ebony base pairs with the string-thru Bigsby B3GP for classic vibrato textures and rock-solid tuning. Locking Grover Imperial tuners and a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut round out the performance-forward setup, ensuring stability and perfect intonation night after night.
Visually, the Roundup Orange finish is nothing short of electric; bold, vibrant, and full of vintage swagger. Gold hardware, jeweled G-Arrow knobs, and the iconic gold plexi pickguard with Falcon graphics add layers of luxury to an already showstopping instrument. It's flashy in all the right ways, with every detail crafted to turn heads and inspire.
This Limited Edition Falcon Center Block Jr. is more than a guitar; it's an instant classic in a rare form. At Cream City Music, we're proud to offer an instrument that blends tradition and innovation so effortlessly. If you've been searching for that perfect mix of Gretsch charm, performance refinement, and aesthetic wow-factor, this Falcon is your next forever guitar.
