Description
Step into a world of modern Gretsch tone and exceptional performance with the Broadkaster Jr. LX Center Block guitar. Part of the Professional Collection, this instrument combines classic design with contemporary innovations to deliver a full-spectrum sound at high volume-perfect for exploring new sonic territories while keeping that signature Gretsch charm.
Under the hood, a redesigned Channel Core™ center block made of maple and spruce accelerates attack and enhances midrange punch, making every note ring out with clarity and impact. The Standard "U"-shaped maple neck, paired with a 12" radius ebony fingerboard featuring rolled edges, 22 medium jumbo frets, pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, and Luminlay side dots, offers fast, fluid playability for intricate solos and dynamic rhythm work.
Equipped with Pro Twin Six humbucking pickups, the Broadkaster Jr. LX delivers powerful tones from smoky cleans to crunchy overdriven leads. The three-position pickup toggle switch and individual volume controls for the neck and bridge allow for precise tonal shaping. A master volume control with treble bleed circuit and a master no-load tone control featuring a "Squeezebox" capacitor ensure you maintain clarity even when cranking up the volume. Adding to its versatility is a string-thru Bigsby B7GP vibrato tailpiece and an Adjusto-Matic bridge that facilitate expressive playing and excellent sustain.
Completing this stellar package are premium features such as a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut for improved sustain and tuning stability, Gotoh locking tuners for rock-solid tuning, Grover strap locks for secure performance, and striking gold hardware that accents its classic aesthetic. Each Broadkaster Jr. LX Center Block also includes a Gretsch deluxe hardshell case for protection and style. Available in stunning Blackberry and Midnight Sapphire finishes, this guitar not only sounds phenomenal but looks the part of a modern rock instrument built for the stage and studio.
