Limited Edition Double Jet

This particular Gretsch model was initially made for our friends at Chicago Music Exchange as a special run, but we've collaborated with them and Gretsch to bring this awesome Double Jet to this side of the pond! Finished in a gorgeous Daphne Blue colour, the G5232 Electromatic Double Jet FT is a mesmerising guitar that also boasts a pair of Black Top Filter’Tron pickups for authentic Gretsch tone, a luxurious Laurel fingerboard and spellbinding gold hardware.

Chambered Construction

An old-school Gretsch Double Jet at heart, this symmetrical-bodied guitar is largely crafted from Mahogany — giving the instrument a deep and harmonically-rich sound. A set-neck construction enhances sustain, while a chambered body design not only lightens the guitar but boosts resonance for a responsive playing feel too!

Thin "U" Neck Profile

Gretsch guitars are adored for their comfort, and this limited edition G5232 Electromatic Double Jet FT is no exception. Sporting a Thin "U"-shaped neck, this addictively-pleasant profile will appeal strongly to Gretsch aficionados familiar with their carve, but is sure to strike a chord with newer, contemporary guitarists who seek stellar playing performance.

Black Top Filter’Tron Pickups

Experienced guitar players will know that Gretsch instruments possess a very distinctive "jangly" sound, which can be mostly attributed to the unique design of their pickups. The G5232 Electromatic Double Jet FT captures that iconic sonic character with its Black Top Filter’Tron pickups, but promises bolder and ballsier low-end tones that still have plenty of top-end bite — without sounding shrill or "ice-picky".

Versatile Electronics

With independent volume controls for each pickup, as well as master volume and tone knobs, there's also a useful 3-position toggle switch that allows you to isolate each Filter’Tron or use a combination of the two — providing a wide tonal palette.

This guitar is crazy value for money. I hadn’t played it before ordering. The filtertrons blow me away, I’m a strat guy normally but these have a strat vibe without the mum. The neck plays very well, minor neck dive, beautiful colour. There is one issue, the adapter for the cable isn’t very secure, basically the slightest nudge and the guitar lead falls to the floor. I’m hoping the local guitar tech can fix this.

This Gretsch Double Jet is wonderful, and this is from someone who generally has tunnel vision only for S-type guitars. I’m so pleased to have bought one of the Anderton’s/CME ltd edition colour guitars and in the Daphne Blue finish, this Gretsch looks incredible and sounds equally as great! At the price it was, it would have been rude not to have bought it! Ridiculously good value.
