The classic hollow body design features a laminated Maple body with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, delivering a sound that is alive and resonant. All-new trestle block bracing helps reduce unwanted feedback which is a welcome addition, particularly when playing live! It also delivers a faster attack with more focus and increased sustain. A classic "C" shape Maple neck with a 12" radius Laurel fingerboard offer incredible comfort and playability whether you're playing chords or intricate single-line melodies.

About the manufacturer

Gretsch

Gretsch guitars are renowned for their distinctive tone, vintage style, and craftsmanship that has defined rockabilly, country, and classic rock for decades. Founded in Brooklyn in 1883, Gretsch became iconic through artists like Chet Atkins, George Harrison, and Brian Setzer, whose twangy, resonant sound came from the brand’s signature hollow and semi-hollow body designs. With features such as Filter’Tron pickups, Bigsby tremolos, and ornate finishes, Gretsch guitars blend elegance with attitude. Whether it’s the warm chime of a White Falcon or the punch of a Duo Jet, Gretsch instruments continue to offer timeless character and individuality for players who want something truly unique.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Bigsby

A Bigsby is a vibrato tailpiece system that allows gentle pitch modulation by moving the strings slightly up or down. It is designed for smooth, expressive vibrato rather than extreme pitch effects, giving a subtle, musical wobble to chords and notes.

Bigsby systems are closely associated with vintage and retro-style guitars, particularly in rock and roll, rockabilly, country, and indie music. They add visual character as well as a distinctive feel, and are valued for their smooth action and classic aesthetic rather than aggressive tremolo techniques.

Electromatic

Hollow

Hollow body guitars are known for their warm, open tone and natural resonance, created by a fully hollow construction that allows the body to vibrate more like an acoustic instrument. They are closely associated with jazz, blues and vintage-style sounds, offering rich lows and smooth highs with a more organic feel. If you are drawn to expressive playing, dynamic response and classic character, hollow body guitars bring a distinctive voice that stands apart from solid body designs.
