Pre-Owned in excellent condition, this 2018 Made in Japan Gretsch Broadkaster JR has been looked after very well and presents great value at this price point! The only real signs of wear are the patina on the Bigsby tailpiece and some small belt buckle scratches on the back (as pictured).
This guitar plays great with a silky smooth action. Coupled with the U.S made Full'Tron pickups and a Bigsby B7GP, you have a fantastic guitar capable of a plethora of tones.
Comes with original hardcase, certificate of authenticity and high quality strap.
Gretsch's time-honored "Broadkaster" name now adorns the flagship guitars of its center block lineup, crafted for full-spectrum sound at high volume with powerful new pickups and a chambered spruce center block that enhances body resonance for more organic tone and comfortably lighter weight.
For big sound in a small package, the G6659TG Players Edition Broadkaster® Jr. Center Block with Bigsby® and Gold Hardware features a slightly smaller single-cutaway body for greater comfort, tonal focus and feedback resistance, all with a matching headstock and gleaming gold hardware. Two new U.S.-made Full'Tron™ pickups deliver full-spectrum sonic range with a growl unlike any other pickup, in addition to classic Gretsch chime, balance and brilliance with a dash of extra-mid concentration for powering through overdriven and distorted passages at full volume
