Description
Here's the Gretsch G5230T Electromatic Jet FT Single-Cut with Bigsby in Dark Cherry Metallic. This model is ideal for intermediate players and gigging musicians who want that unmistakable Jet sound and classic Gretsch look without jumping up to the high-end price bracket. The rich Dark Cherry Metallic finish gives it a sharp, modern edge, while the Bigsby and Silver Plexi pickguard really pull the whole aesthetic together.
You get a chambered mahogany body with a maple top for full, resonant lows and mids, plus a crisp, balanced high end. Black Top Filter'Tron pickups give you punch and clarity, whether you're dialing in vintage jangle or pushing things with some gain. With the three-way selector, individual pickup volumes, and master volume/tone controls with a treble bleed circuit, you have total control over your sound. The anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and Bigsby setup make for great tuning stability and expressive vibrato work.
The thin "U" neck profile, paired with a laurel fingerboard and medium jumbo frets, makes this one easy to play for long stretches, whether you're recording or playing out. These Electromatic Jets have proven themselves as reliable, stage-ready guitars that deliver classic Gretsch feel and tone, and this one is no exception.
