GRETSCH - Electromatic® Jet™ Baritone - Rosewood Fingerboard - Imperial Stain

The Electromatic® Baritone Jet™ captures essential Gretsch power and fidelity at sub-sonic levels. A mahogany body with carved maple top and an elongated 29.75” scale-length bolt-on maple neck combine for excellent resonance and colossal impact. PureVolt™ Twin Six™ humbuckers deliver gut-punching power with remarkable balance and articulation. Designed to astound, this electrifying baritone guitar delivers uncompromising playability, powerful versatility and refined performance.


Highlights:

CHAMBERED MAHOGANY BODY WITH BOUND CARVED MAPLE TOP, SCULPTED FOREARM & BODY CONTOURS & ROUNDED HEEL
At the heart of each Electromatic Baritone Jet is a mahogany body with precise chambering and a carved maple top. Designed for exceptional acoustic balance, this precise combination delivers strong attack with a rich, present mid-range, big lows and shimmering musical highs. A smooth rounded heel allows for unimpeded access to the highest frets, while subtle comfort contours on the body create a balanced ergonomic fit for effortless playability and enhanced comfort.

MAPLE NECK WITH PERFORMANCE “C” NECK PROFILE
We’ve crafted a balanced, rounded "C" profile with tapered shoulders that is comfortable for all players with just enough mass to ensure precise playability in all positions. Maple construction ensures optimal stiffness and the stability to withstand extra string tension.

BOUND ROSEWOOD FINGERBOARD
When it comes to tone and playability, there’s almost nothing more important than an instrument’s fingerboard. The Electromatic Baritone Jet feature a genuine rosewood fingerboard with 1-ply aged white binding that generates both smooth, silky feel and warm, woody tone.

GRAPHTECH NUBONE NUT FOR SUPERIOR TUNING STABILITY
A GraphTech NuBone nut delivers consistent and balanced tone, enhanced resonance and sustain, and superior playability. Optimized break angle and string-pull to the tuning keys solves the problem of strings sticking or slipping. These features create rock-solid stable tuning that will power your longest and most aggressive performances without missing a beat.

PUREVOLT™ TWIN SIX™ HUMBUCKERS
PureVolt™ Twin Six™ humbuckers are beautifully dynamic, exceptionally expressive and addictively powerful. Each pickup features twelve adjustable pole pieces for precise attack and unrestrained flexibility. In the neck position Alnico IV magnets are paired with plain enamel wire, while in the bridge Alnico V magnets pair with plain enamel coated wire. Specially calibrated coil winds create incredible balance and raw humbucker power with amazing clarity and versatility, while vacuum wax-potting keeps noise and interference to a minimum.

ADVANCED ELECTRONICS
The Electromatic Baritone Jet is equipped with a control circuit designed to give you complete tonal control. A master volume with treble bleed circuit provides precise adjustment while maintaining clarity at any volume. Individual pickup tone controls provide intuitive control, calibrated for stellar tone at every setting. Push/Pull tone controls unlock snappy and glassy true single-coil timbres for each pickup, and better yet each single coil combines for a hum-cancelling pair in the middle position.
