Description
No-nonsense and true to the legendary Gretsch sound, the Electromatic Jet™ FT is the perfect real, pure, and powerful instrument for players ready to take the next step. Crafted with essential Gretsch tone, style, and playability, this bold, dynamic, and articulate guitar empowers you to explore your creativity with confidence and authenticity.
Since 1953, the Gretsch Jet has been the hallmark sound for iconic players, and the G5230T Electromatic Sparkle Jet FT captures that essential power and fidelity at an incredible price. Its chambered mahogany body with an arched maple top delivers a strong sonic profile with exceptional acoustic balance, ensuring that every note resonates clearly. The lower set mahogany neck offers effortless access to every fret, making dynamic performance smooth and natural.
A 12" radius laurel fingerboard with Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets provides comfortable playability and clear note definition, while the FT-5E Filter'Tron humbucking pickups deliver that unmistakable Gretsch magic-warm cleans, biting overdrives, and everything in between. With intuitive controls that include individual pickup volumes, master volume (with treble bleed circuit), and master tone, you have all the flexibility to shape your sound to perfection.
Enhancing its versatility, the Electromatic Jet FT features a Bigsby® B50 vibrato tailpiece for expressive pitch variations, an anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge for stability and sustain, a silver plexi pickguard that highlights its elegant design, and chrome hardware for a sleek finish. Available in striking Gold Sparkle or Silver Sparkle finishes, this guitar is ready to inspire your performance and help you stand out on any stage.
