$0.00
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Very near mint Jet, light and very light/resonant With a great playing neck.

A really Gretsch-y sounding Gretsch!  All the gnarly drive and tone you'd expect from the BroadTron pickups, a name I'm not sure about but the sound is there so whatevah! 

The chambered body is partially responsible for the tone, but also the great resonance and light, comfortable feel of the guitar.

The 12" neck radius and medium jumbo frets really let you dig in and bend, and the neck profile/thickness are just about right for any player - not too fat, not too slim.

Power, Fidelity & Complete Tonal Control
The all-new G6228 Players Edition Jet™ BT with V-Stoptail gives you powerful overdrive and shimmering cleans at the stomp of a switch.

Chambered Mahogany Bodies — Thick and Acoustically Rich
Each Jet BT begins with a select 1.85" mahogany body with maple top that produces a strong, balanced mid-range, while the chambered body delivers a smooth attack and extended bandwidth that is remarkably wide and harmonically rich.

Broad'Tron™ BT65 Pickups – Power & Fidelity

The result is the perfect mixture of wall-shaking power and full-spectrum fidelity that delivers unparalleled overdrive and shimmering cleans — all at the stomp of a switch.
