1999 Historic series catalog
Gretsch made a big deal of the made-in-Korea Historic line when it was introduced in 1999. It appears they had high hopes for it.
The Historics were an interesting blend of classic features and names mixed in all-new models. Unfortunately, the price of the made-in-Korea models approached the Pro-lines, and sales were low. Years later, they began to find an audience.
