What we say:
At A Glance:
The stunning G6659T Broadkaster Junior by Gretsch is a modern take on a classic vintage design. The chambered spruce centre block construction is crafted for optimised tones at high volumes and is combined with Full'Tron pickups, a Bigsby tremolo and Gotoh locking tuners to create a lightweight guitar that's reliable, beautiful and sings loud and proud. If you're looking for a vintage style guitar that's versatile and built to last, this is the guitar for you!
Features We Love:
Full'Tron pickups
The USA made Full'Tron pickup is a legend that's loved for its unique growl, sonic range, chime and tight tone that sounds beautiful on cleans and absolutely screams in the best possible way when overdriven.
Bigsby B7CP String Thru Tremolo
One of the most distinctive tremolo systems around, the Bigsby is loved for its subtle tremolo sound. It also gives you the ability to rest your hand on the bridge without creating any pitch warble. It oozes tonnes of vintage vibe and is a tried and tested classic!
Gotoh Locking Tuners
While using a tremolo is fun, it is known to result in your guitar drifting out of pitch. Gotoh locking tuners combat this by allowing you to lock the string down after you tune-up, meaning you can go to town on the Bigsby and not have to play the rest of the song with a guitar that's out of tune!
Pros:
- Stunning vintage looks and tones
