What's special about this item?

DynaSonic single-coil pickups Very open, clear, organic tone
Gretsch "G" Cadillac tailpiece Classic Gretsch ornamentation and style
Grover Imperial tuners Classy appearance and unmatched tuning stability

Far from a flightless bird, the Gretsch White Penguin is ready to soar with a design that marries the best of Gretsch's legacy with its more contemporary offerings. Outfitted with DynaSonic pickups and gold hardware throughout, this bird is dressed to kill.

Iconic and Sleek Design

With its arched, laminated maple top and semi-hollow mahogany body, the White Penguin rings out with sustained resonance all too familiar to anyone who's played a classic Gretsch. The single-cutaway design shows off the Penguin's more modern sensibilities, however -- inviting players who want to take country and rockabilly in new directions. A one-piece mahogany neck is set into the body and capped off with an ebony fretboard for a swift playing experience.

DynaSonic Pickups Provide Shimmering Sound

The engine driving the White Penguin's sound is an electronics circuit powered by two DynaSonic single-coil pickups. Designed by Gretsch, the DynaSonics have become known for their clear, crisp highs and tight low-end response -- a natural fit for those throaty, country chicken-pickin' sounds. DynaSonic pickups are also appreciated by tone tweakers for their fully adjustable pole pieces, which offer even more opportunities to craft unique dynamics. Three-way pickup switching gives you a range from rounded neck tones to bridge twang, and the sweet, out-of-phase sound of the two pickups combined.

Gold Appointments Add Class

There is no lack of style on the White Penguin. From the banjo armrest read more that cups the guitar's lower bout, to the dramatic Gretsch "G" Cadillac tailpiece, all the way to the Grover Imperial tuners, the White Penguin is clad in gold-covered design elements. The Space Control roller bridge is about more than looks: it lets you independently adjust string spacing to suit your playing style.
