Gretsch Electromatic Jet – HH Electric Guitar with PureVolt Twin Six

The Gretsch Electromatic Jet is an HH-configured electric guitar in Jet™ body shape, featuring a LockDown™ adjustable wraparound bridge and PureVolt™ Twin Six™ humbuckers. The guitar has a chambered mahogany body with a carved maple top, and a Performance “C” neck with a bound rosewood fingerboard. It is suitable for stage, studio, and practice use, offering stable tuning and adjustable intonation.

Overview and Features

The Electromatic Jet is equipped with PureVolt™ Twin Six™ humbuckers in neck and bridge positions, each with twelve adjustable pole pieces for precise attack and tonal balance. Master volume with treble-bleed and individual tone controls for each pickup provide full tonal control. Push/pull functions on the tone controls split each pickup to single-coil mode and combine pickups in the middle position for hum-cancelling.
