The G7593T is Billy Duffy's signature White Falcon, styled after the Baldwin-era Falcons of the 1970s. The single-cutaway hollow body is laminated maple, 17" wide and 2 3/4" deep, with an arched top and back, two spruce parallel tone bars and a sound post. It is finished in White Lacquer, gloss nitrocellulose, with chrome hardware, the V-shaped Falcon headstock and silver sparkle binding.
The pickups are custom-wound Black Top Filter'Tron humbuckers, wound hot and set in '70s-style metal bezels. Each has its own volume, with a master volume, a three-way toggle and a three-position master tone switch. The Adjusto-Matic bridge sits on a pinned '70s-style ebony base, ahead of a Bigsby with a wire-style handle. The 3-piece maple/walnut/maple neck has a 12" radius ebony board, pearloid big block inlays, medium jumbo frets and a zero fret, on a 25.5" scale.
For a Falcon in a different period's dress, compare the G6136T-59 Vintage Select Edition '59 Falcon or the Gretsch Falcon Hollow Body with String-Thru Bigsby.
