Description
Few guitars are as synonymous with rock 'n' roll as the Gretsch Jet. Gretsch's G6229TG Limited Edition Players Edition Sparkle Jet BT takes the beloved Players Edition Jet and gives it an updated new look with a gorgeous, eye-catching sparkle finish.
Gretsch's Players Edition Jet features a chambered mahogany body capped with a maple top, resulting in a tone that's strong, balanced, and rich with harmonics. The G6229TG's natural voice is complemented well by its dual Broad'Tron BT65 humbuckers that churn out powerful mids, deep lows, and smooth, chiming highs. If you're picky about your tone, don't worry - the Players Edition Jet has a master tone pot, master volume control, and individual pickup volume controls, giving it an impressively versatile sonic palette.
The G6229TG doesn't just sound good - it also plays exceptionally well. Updated with a lowered neck set that significantly improves fret-hand mobility and a tapered neck heel that allows for easy access to the upper frets, riffing and shredding on the Players Edition Jet is an absolute joy.
The perfect blend of elegant and raw, Gretsch's G6229TG Limited Edition Players Edition Sparkle Jet BT is a top-of-the-line performer that would serve proudly at the head of your collection.
