Gretsch G5232T Electromatic Double Jet FT with Bigsby, Fairlane Blue Overview
The Gretsch G5232T Electromatic Double Jet is loaded with a pair of powerful Filter'Tron pickups. With their ability to provide both warm humbucking tones and bright, super-sharp single coil voices, there's nothing quite like Filter'Trons for bringing versatility into your music. Wide-reaching sound is far from all the G5232T brings you, though. It's got a classic Bigsby tremolo for adding a distinctive warble to your playing.
A double cutaway body means you've got uninhibited access to the top of the fretboard - a lead guitarist's dream. But rhythm players won't be disappointed. A chambered mahogany body delivers every chord with a full, natural richness that's simply incomparable. It has to be - it can only be Gretsch. That iconic Gretsch tone. It's a sound guitar manufacturer the world over have sought after for decades. But no one does it better than the masters.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionRoaring tone for any style
There's no point in having a guitar that limits what you can play. Fortunately, the Gretsch G5232T is the exact opposite. Loaded with a pair of Black-Top Filter'Tron pickups, this guitar has power and versatility in equal measure. You never have to worry about making your playing cut through the mix.
Whatever genre you're after, this model can handle it. From deep, commanding lows to sharp, sparkling highs, it's got every frequency covered. And 3-way pickup switching will let you play rich chords, crisp riffs, and everything in between. Also equipped is Gretsch's special treble-bleed circuit, which maintains the definition and sharpness of your high notes, no matter the volume in which you play.
A fluid playing action
Natural and smooth, the G5232T Electromatic Double Jet's playability is second to none. Its slick mahogany neck has a gloss finish, reducing friction and allowing your hand to move up and down it quickly and easily. It'll feel comfortable, too - a thin "U"-shaped profile fits snugly into your palm. And hitting notes up the top of the scale is made easy by a double cutaway, providing uninhibited access to the highest frets. A playing experience engineered to the highest level.
History-making tremolo
It's not often that you can attribute the word 'legendary' to something as small as a guitar's bridge. But in the case of the Gretsch G5232T's Bigsby tremolo, it's completely fitting. The Bigsby has been around for decades, and its distinctive, warbling vibrato has been heard on the music of everyone from Led Zeppelin to The Beatles, The Rolling Stones to The White Stripes, David Bowie and beyond. So you know the sound you'll get from this guitar's tremolo is good enough for the best.
