Gretsch announced the all-new G6128T Players Edition Jet DS With Bigsby and the all-new G2215-P90 Streamliner Junior Jet Club.
For over 65 years the Gretsch Jet has fueled stages and studios producing some of the greatest sounds in rock ‘n’ roll history. The G6128T Players Edition Jet DS With Bigsby is the culmination of over half a century of tonal and performance magic.
The G6128T Jet DS begins with a select mahogany body with maple top that produces the signature strong, punchy response that has made the Jet famous. For this model, Gretsch chose a 1.85” depth along with vintage chambering to complement the chambered body to produce amplified bright, shimmering highs and a defined, rich bass for distinct tone that cuts through the mix.
Responding to player needs for increased comfort, the G6138T features a lowered neck set that greatly improves fret-hand mobility while also giving the picking hand a closer approach, increasing comfort and accuracy. The new full-access rolled cutaway and tapered heel allows the free access frets without awkward pivoting or palm obstruction. This sleek design remains hidden, preserving a vintage aesthetic, a critical feature that is meant to be felt, not seen.
The G6T128T also comes equipped with additional Players Edition features that give total control of tone and performance, including no-load master tone pot with Squeezebox paper-in-oil capacitor, master volume with treble bleed circuit and individual pickup volume controls.
Designed for the working professional, the G6128T Players Edition Jet DS with Bigsby is available in Black, Dark Cherry Metallic, Lotus Ivory or Sahara Metallic, with nickel hardware. The Black and Dark Cherry Metallic finishes sport a silver pickguard, the Lotus Ivory comes with a charcoal grey pickguard, and the Sahara Metallic features a tortoise pickguard.
An exciting new addition to the Streamliner Collection, the G2215-P90 Streamline Junior Jet Club is a stylish workhorse that’s ready to brawl.
Powered by BroadTron, BT-2S bridge and P90 Soap Bar neck pickups, this Streamliner delivers tight lows with a throaty midrange that is harnessed and shaped by a master tone control, master volume control, and three-way pickup switching.
Bound nato bodies with stunning Mint Metallic, Sahara Metallic, and Single Barrel Stain finishes are complemented by effortless mahogany-stained necks that feature 12”-radius laurel fingerboards, elegant and pearloid Neo-Classic inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets.
The G2215-P90 also features an anchored compensated wrap-around bridge, gold Electro-style control knobs, cream pickguard and nickel hardware.
