Gretsch Electromatic G5235T Pro Jet Review

History: I have only just started learning guitar over the last 3 months by teaching myself at the moment.

Purchase: I purchased this guitar originally because it was different to most others around with its Bigsby Tremolo. It looks classy with a vintage feel. I payed $875au

Pros: The tones are clean and crisp with deep bass notes.It has a real pure sound which is also strong with the 2 mini humbuckers. It feels good in the hand and the tuners are smooth. Also I really like the overall look and we all know how important the looks are.....hehehe



Cons: There are only a couple of things that i dont like....The strings tend to buzz on the frets...but this doesnt come through the amp....And the other thing is the bigsy tremolo, while it is very stylish and good to use it throws it way out of tune if you are too heavy handed

Electromatic G5235T Pro Jet Quality: The overall construction and quality of the guitar is first class...The front is black with a white pickgaurd and the back is a deep mahogany which is faultless in appearance

Gretsch Summary: I would recommend this guitar to anyone from a beginner to a hardcore rockhead...summing it up in one word...BEAUTIFUL
