I have seen one, Fender Custom Shop is currently making a relic'd "Brian Setzer Tribute" Gretsch 6120. Complete with all of the wear, missing paint, cracks, checking, etc. of Brian's original '59. Kinda like the Stevie and Rory tribute guitars.

I may have been drunk, and mistaken, (it happens somewhat frequently ) but I seem to remember some gibson Tom Murphy aged semi-hollows as well.

You're right though, you don't see 'em often...
