Mahogany and Maple, name a more iconic duo! The rich midrange character of Mahogany is perfectly complimented by the Maple cap which adds top end bite and brilliance for both warmth and clarity. The chambered Mahogany body keeps the guitar very light, making it an excellent gigging amp, without sacrificing the attack you get from a solid body.
The Mahogany neck adds to the warm character of the body, and the thin "U" shaped neck and 12" radius Laurel fingerboard feel incredibly comfortable to play, allowing you to fly up and down the neck with effortless ease. The new Electromatic Jet BT has the neck set deeper in the pocket which allows for easier upper fret access.
The Broad'Tron pickups in the Electromatic Jet add power and clarity. With more output than a traditional Fitler'Tron, the pickups are voiced to handle higher gain, with plenty of midrange punch while retaining some of that top end sparkle without becoming brittle. With individual volumes for each pickup, as well as a master volume you can find your perfect tonal blend. With the individual volumes you will get a smooth high end roll off as you roll down the volume, or you can roll down the master volume to get a shimmery, bright clean tone thanks to it's treble bleed circuit.
