Description
This is the newly redesigned Electromatic Pro Jet G5448T. The G5448T features a high gloss gold finish and a Licensed Bigsby tremolo. The Electromatic Jet's are excellent guitars that sound great and have that classic Gretsch style! The Electromatic Jet features the same construction recipe you'd find on its 1950's ancestors. It has a chambered Mahogany body with set neck and a 3 ply maple top yielding a snappy tone that's great for a variety of music styles. The tone from the new "Black Top" FilterTron humbuckers is very clean with low noise and plenty of bite. The bridge pickup is nice and snappy and the neck pickup has a much smoother "scooped" midrange and warm bass response. If you're looking to an alternate to the usual solidbody guitars you see on stages and in stores that has authentic vintage style then you must check out a Gretsch! We are a long standing fully authorized independent Gretsch guitar dealer. This is a brand new guitar and comes with the full Gretsch Limited lifetime factory warranty. If you have any questions at all please feel free to call!
Note: We are including a very high quality gigbag with this guitar at no additional charge! Its a great thick padded bag that fits the Electromatic Jet perfectly!
