General

Gretsch's G5220 Jet BT is a single-cut electric guitar from the accessible Electromatic Series, built using a chambered mahogany body, a maple top, a mahogany neck and a walnut fretboard that adds warmth and a lightly rounded bite to the overall airy foundation sound.

The G5220 Electromatic Jet BT: Broad'Tron Humbuckers

Two Black Top Broad'Tron humbucker pickups are responsible for delivering the sound to your amplifier but, unlike regular humbuckers, these Baldwin-styled pickups offer more definition which makes this guitar excellent for music styles including rock, rockabilly and country. Each pickup has its own volume potentiometer and shared master volume and tone controls, while the master volume pot also has a treble bleed circuit to ensure that none of the high frequencies are lost regardless of the settings.

Wrote the following about Gretsch G5220 Electromatic Jet BT Midnight Sapphire Electric Guitar
Gitaar in de winkel zelf gekocht, prettig model, goede fret access, ziet er heel gaaf uit en de glans op de body is heel cool om in het echt te zien. Helaas ratelt de neck pickup een beetje alsof hij los zit, maar als je de pickup omhoog schroeft (makkelijk te doen gelukkig) heb je er geen last van. Beetje last van fretbuzz maar met een goede setup is dit ook weg. Aanrader!
