Distinctive Gretsch style with serious sonic attitude.
Loaded with Tim Shaw-designed BT-65 Broad'Tron pickups, this Players Edition Jet BT delivers a full load of Gretsch vibe, plus a powerful edge. The chambered mahogany body toped with a maple top has plenty of sustain, with a smooth attack and extended bandwidth that's rich in harmonic content. The pickups deliver powerful mids and a smooth high end for a full-fidelity sound that still delivers serious crunch when you crank the amp. With it's retro-modern visual style and versatile sonic signature, it's an instrument that lets you be you, only more so.
