Description: Gretsch G6193 • 2006 Country Club • Natural Spruce Top “Oops” Model w/Dynasonics This is one of an unverified-but-small number Country Clubs (fewer than 20) which escaped the Terada factory in 2006 with natural blond spruce tops AND Dynasonic pickups - a spec which was then not in the catalog. The Gretsch overseers at FMIC didn’t realize the “mistake” till the guitars were discovered in stock at dealers. Apparently dealers didn’t notice either, as no mention was made of the unique spec till Gretsch forum members noticed the guitars. I purchased the guitar in 2009, second owner. It has been played very little. Description overview: Model 6193: Laminated maple top, blond natural (Mistake units had natural spruce tops); 2 Dynasonics & tone-knob circuit, Adjusto-Matic OR Synchro-Sonic (Melita) bridge), G-Cutout tailpiece, rosewood fingerboard with humpblock markers. For clarification: what makes this an “Oops” Country Club is the combination of spruce top, natural finish, and Dynasonic pickups. It doesn’t sound any different than a Cadillac green 6196 of the same era - but the classic looks and mysterious history of the instrument creates demand among some players. (Some because they prefer the natural look and Dynasonics - others because of the rarity.) This Oops Country Clubs is in immaculate condition. Its rarity has been recognized from the beginning and owners know what they have. The guitar is a unique premium over either the Cad green 6196s or the more common maple-topped 6193s. I purchased a Tru-Arc bridge which additionally comes with the guitar. The photos show both bridges. If you have questions or need more detailed photos for validation send me an email request. Thanks for viewing my listing.
