Gretsch Synchromatic Falcon – Black

Black Tie. Bad Intentions. Pure Rock 'n' Roll.

Some guitars are built to turn heads. Others are built to raise a little hell.

Meet the Gretsch Synchromatic Falcon in Black—a midnight masterpiece dressed in shimmering gold and carrying just enough attitude to get you into trouble.

With its deep black finish, dazzling gold sparkle binding, and gleaming gold hardware, this Falcon looks like it belongs under a spotlight in a smoky, sold-out theater. It's equal parts vintage sophistication and back-alley rock 'n' roll. Think Johnny Cash meets a Las Vegas casino after midnight.

And while it certainly knows how to look expensive, this bird wasn't built to sit pretty in a glass case.

It's got some serious bite.

Why You'll Like It

Dressed in Black, Dripping in Gold: That sinister black finish and sparkling gold trim make one thing perfectly clear: subtlety wasn't invited to this party. This Falcon is pure six-string luxury with a rebellious streak.

Sweet Talk or Start a Fight: A pair of Hi-Fidelity Filter'Tron pickups can whisper silky jazz chords, deliver that unmistakable Gretsch twang, or growl with enough grit to make your amplifier reconsider its life choices.

A Little Wiggle Never Hurt Anybody: The Bigsby B60 V-Cutout vibrato serves up everything from gentle vintage shimmer to those swooping, dramatic bends that make a great riff downright unforgettable.

Smooth Operator: The soft "C" maple neck and sleek ebony fingerboard feel right at home whether you're laying down sophisticated chord voicings or tearing through a late-night rockabilly solo.

Big, Bold, and Beautifully Unapologetic: With its 2.5-inch-deep laminated maple hollow body and Semi-Arc bracing, this Falcon delivers the lively resonance, warmth, and unmistakable character you'd expect from a guitar with this much presence.

Brand New, Ready to Raise Hell

Factory fresh, flawless in its intentions, and completely innocent of any previous musical misbehavior.

This Black Falcon arrives ready for its first gig, its first encore, and whatever questionable decisions follow. A deluxe hardshell case is included, because even a rebel deserves a first-class ride.

The Snowcrest White Falcon might steal your heart. This one might steal your soul.

Wolf Music Company — Some birds sing. This one rocks.
