Billy Duffy isn't afraid to make a statement, and few things make a bolder statement than Duffy wielding his Gretsch White Falcon under the stage lights with British rock legends The Cult!
Duffy formed Theatre of Hate in the early 1980s, before meeting Ian Astbury and forming The Cult, one of rock 'n' roll's most powerful, unique, and long-lasting duos.

Overview:
Duffy's combination of thick power chords steeped in rich chorused delay, melodic Morricone-inspired lead phrases, and filthy feedback-laden solos created an unrivalled sound that could fill most venues.
Dreamtime and Love, The Cult's first two albums, cemented their place among the pre-"alternative" elite, with the latter featuring what would become their most popular single, "She Sells Sanctuary," which remains a global staple on rock radio more than 30 years later and was featured in a 2012 Super Bowl advertisement.
Duffy's inimitable guitar features much of what Falcon fans cherish, including period-correct '70s Baldwin-era styling, loss nitrocellulose lacquer finish, V-shaped Falcon headstock, Silver Sparkle binding, custom wound hot Black Top Filter'Tron humbucking pickups with three-point adjustable '70s-style metal bezels, and Duffy's preferred Bigsby tailpiece.
Duffy's signature bird of prey has a 17" wide, 2 34" deep single-cutaway three-ply maple body with a three-ply maple arched top and back and two spruce parallel tone bars and sound post, a three-piece maple/walnut/maple neck with ebony fingerboard, a chrome-plated truss rod cover with Duffy's signature emblazoned on it, a chrome-plated output jack The Gretsch G7593T Billy Duffy Falcon guitar was inspired, designed, and handcrafted to deliver the ultimate statement of rock 'n' roll nirvana.
