Gretsch G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone with Bigsby Laurel Fingerboard – Midnight Sapphire
The Gretsch Electromatic Collection gives you essential Gretsch power, style and performance. These are the guitars that will get you to the big stage — Play Proud.
The G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone with Bigsby captures essential Jet power and fidelity at sub-sonic levels.
The Jet Baritone rattles foundations with dual Gretsch mini humbucking pickups that capture thundering lows while retaining a piano-like articulation and definition for intoxicating sonic size and width at every level of gain. Simple tone-shaping is provided by a three-position pickup toggle switch as well as master volume and master tone controls.
An elongated 29-3/4″-scale accommodates lower tunings without loss of string tension, while the sturdy bolt-on maple neck is topped with a comfortable 12”-radius laurel fingerboard featuring 22 medium jumbo frets.
Crafted with unmistakable Gretsch sound, style and playability, other premium features and appointments include an anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge, Bigsby B50 tailpiece, pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, white binding with purfling and chrome hardware
