      Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

      I purchased to play bass on songs I am writing and recording. I can give my band's bass player the general idea of what I want. Full size basses are too hard for me to play and I don't want to invest the time developing that skill. This is a solid, well-made, simple bass with good tone that is perfect for plugging into a DAW and then using software to shape the tone.

      It stays in tune, required just a little time setting up; it's simplicity on construction makes that easy.

        Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

        This Gretsch 2220 Junior Jet II is everything the rest of these reviews say it is. NO, it isn't going to totally blow you away... but it's gonna surprise you. Great for guitarists, great for smaller hands. Using just a small Zoom B2 effects box, this thing more than suits the home studio. (You'll want to change the strings.) Wish my Les Paul had volume knobs that felt this good. Might buy another in case Gretsch discontinues it...

        Nice Bass

        Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

        I really like this bass and it is fun to play.
        The pickups are well balanced and do a very good job of covering the spectrum of high and low notes.
        Workmanship andd setup were very impressive right out of the box. The bass is a little heavy due to the density of the wood but the sustain makes up for the extra weight. Buy yourself a good soft leather strap and you will good to go. There is no neck dive and the bass is comfortable to hold whether you stand or sit.
        Very good value for the quality of build.

        Great Buy on A Good 30-inch Scale Bass

        Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

        Good buy.
        No frills, but everything works. Simple volume and tone controls. Good adjustable bridge and good tuners. Small bass, but the body is thick and has enough mass for good tone. 30-inch scale works well for me, as I am a guitarist by trade and play bass as a second instrument.
        Excellent quality for the price. The feel and playability compare favorably to a 70's Gibson SG bass I used to have. Action was set too low from factory, a little too much buzz. Easy fix with good adjustable bridge saddles, and intonation screws work well. Strings were OK but flatwounds have made this bass sing. Unplugged, I can actually hear every note acoustically in a quiet room!
        Great value at this price.

        Hard to believe

        By Luke Merrill

        from North Idaho

        Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

        I still can't believe the tone and quality for this price. I bought this for my son who outgrew his Ibanez Mikro but is still too small for a full-scale bass. It's been a few weeks now, and every time we play, I'm still blown away by the tone that comes out of this instrument. The quality is superb. Beautiful bass. At this price, you cannot beat this deal.

        G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar

        By mary davidson

        from Arkansas

        Comments about Gretsch Guitars G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet II Electric Bass Guitar:

        My fingers got a little rocked playing. Definately need to order some Fender strings for it.
        I started with the Gretsch Junior Jet I and for X-mas this year stepped up to the G2220. What an incredible leap I made with this bass. I used it for practice last night with "The Kattie Laney Band"and my playing improved tremendously.This bass has incredible tone. The wood makes the sound very solid and beefy. For a short scale bass I am getting a large scale tone. The neck is incredibly smooth and makes it very easy for me to move up and down on it. I will be keeping my eyes and ears open for the Junior Jet III. bring it on.
        I would highly recommend this bass guitar. It is a little heavier than the Junior Jet I, but for the sound coming out, I will put up with the weight difference. Thanx for such a great product.
