1978 Chet Atkins - A new Gretsch Great! - the Atkins Super Axe guitar

Nobody knows more about electric guitars than Chet Atkins. And nobody makes better guitars than Gretsch. Put them together and you have a brand new concept in sophisticated electronics, the Atkins Super Axe. Designed by Chet for Gretsch, this great new axe gives you all the modular sound effects you'll ever need with built-in interchangeable components. The phaser module produces the greatest sound variations you'll ever hear. The compressor, with sustain control, squeezes the tone and feeds it out for an infinite tonal response and sustain. Absolutely beautiful. No pedals. No more groping around for the right sound. Just flip a switch. The Atkins Super Axe brings Gretsch super quality to the rock field. Like Chet himself says: "In all modesty I think my new Super Axe is the ultimate guitar for the rock musician."
