Meet the hot-rodded cousin of the classic Gretsch Duo Jet: the Power Jet. Loaded with TV Jones Power'Tron pickups, this single-cutaway semi-hollowbody wails.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Maple top Long sustain with crisp, bright tone
TV Jones Power'Tron pickups Clean, clear and balanced modern tone
Bigsby vibrato tailpiece Classic top-mount vibrato adds resonant mass
Sperzel locking tuners Locking machine heads ensure tuning stability

Light and lean, the Gretsch G6128T-TVP Power Jet is a mahogany rocker packing plenty of tonal punch from its TV Jones Power'Tron pickups. It's no slouch on features either, with plenty of player-friendly upgrades.

Light Weight, Hefty Tone

The Power Jet uses mahogany wood in a semi-hollow design, combining the tonewood's warm qualities with the open resonance of a semi-hollow guitar. White binding along the body, neck, and headstock add even more class to an already gentlemanly instrument. The Power Jet's neck is a one-piece mahogany set neck for ringing sustain and balance with the body. The neck is carved relatively thin with a 12" radius, and is topped with an ebony fretboard for a fast and smooth playing experience.

Pickups Howl with Southern Snarl

Equipped with TV Jones Power'Tron pickups, the Power Jet is ready to handle a full range of tones. If it's sparkling clean you want, the neck pickup offers punchy, well-defined mids, and takes well to lowering the tone knob for a jazzier voice. Switch over to the bridge pickup for a bright sound that's ideal for chicken pickin' licks. Set a course for raunchier tones and see how the Power'Trons repond to a distorted amp. The neck pickup gives a full-bodied lead tone, and the bridge can handle heavy rock without losing that distinctive Southern twang.

All the Trimmings

There's no shortage of quality hardware and appointments on the Power Jet. The Gretsch-licensed Bigsby B3c vibrato makes notes flutter with read more vintage tremolo action. A rosewood-based Adjusto-Matic bridge allows you to make easy adjustments to string intonation or action. Sperzel locking tuners keep your weeping ballads in tune even through the most heinous Bigsby abuse. Schaller Straplocks keep the Power Jet on your shoulders in case you get the urge to start strutting like Elvis.
