Duane Eddy

Duane Eddy explains his signature guitar from Gretsch in this video.

“I was about nine and my aunt sent me a little lap steel with an amp – I guess it appealed to her. So I learned to play it, then my folks gave me an old Kay they found somewhere – I had that until I was 14 or 15. Then I bought a Les Paul Goldtop in 1954," says Duane, in Music Radar's article.

Duane Eddy can famously be seen with this guitar on the cover of the album "Dance With The Guitar Man"

Mentioned semi-anecdotally in this Gibson article.

I guess we can reasonably say, therefore, that the legendary rock and roll rig isn’t just one set-up, but an evolution of pairings: the music set forth from big-bodied Gibson archtops like those played by both Bill Haley and Comets guitarist Danny Cedrone, or—a couple years later—the Gretsch 6120s Eddie Cochran and Duane Eddy played.

This guitar would later inspire Eddy's signature model, a modified version of the original.

Duane Eddy is also mentioned as an artist on the Rivera website.

Duane Eddy is seen playing on this amp in the video.

'"I like the MXR M159 Stereo Tremolo pedal, like the Dunlop one I used to have. '

"Associated with a few Signature guitar models throughout [Duane's] career, one staple has been the Bigsby B6 vibrato," states Bigsby's website.
