This Gretsch is a fantastic entry point into the brand's signature sound. The Broad'Tron pickups give it a distinctive, almost British Invasion vibe, while the Bigsby adds a touch of class. It's a really fun guitar, perfect for players who love that retro vibe and want a versatile instrument without a premium-priced tag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Broad'Trons have a unique character—more chime and mid-range focus than many standard humbuckers, with a slightly more compressed feel.
The 12” radius and 1 11/16” nut width are quite standard, but the soft 'C' profile is generally comfortable; some players with very large hands might find it a bit snug.
The Bigsby B60 is a well-regarded tremolo and, when properly set up, offers good tuning stability for moderate vibrato use; extreme dives will require retuning.
