Overview

The Gretsch Electromatic Jet FT Double-Cut features a Chambered Mahogany body, Blacktop Filter'Tron pickups, and a Bigsby tailpiece.

In its 65 year existence the Gretsch Jet has been the hallmark sound for iconic players. The all-new G5245T Electromatic Jet FT Double-Cut with Bigsby captures that essential Jet power and classic sound at an incredible price.

The Classic Jet tone begins with a chambered mahogany body with maple top that produces full lows and mids with an exceptionally smooth and present high end. The result is a deep acoustic foundation that is robust, yet balanced.

The 2 Black Top Filter'Tron pickups amplify and accentuate the Electromatic Jet FT's chambered body to produce a wide, balanced and transparent tone. Loud and punchy, this Jet sounds out with remarkable definition at any level of gain. Together, the body and pickups thunder with full, responsive lows and mids with a high-end that sparkles without spikes.

This Jet FT is equipped with simplified controls that deliver no-nonsense tonal control. The combination of master volume with treble bleed circuit and master tone gives you bare essentials, straight-ahead sonic command.
