Gretsch guitars: 6182 Corvette

<p>The 6182 (sunburst finished) and 6183 (natural finished) Corvettes briefly replaced the 6185 Electromatic Spanish in the Gretsch lineup, but only for a couple of years. By 1957 both had been supplanted by the altogether hipper Lotus Ivory/Metallic Gray 6187 Corvette. </p>
