Sparkle Jets

These limited edition run Gretsch limited-edition Players Edition Sparkle Jets come with gold hardware throughout, in either Champagne Sparkle or Ocean Turquoise Sparkle finishes. They have the very handy string-thru Bigsby B7GP vibrato system, making it easy to re-string. This is paired with a set of Gotoh locking tuners along with an anchored Tune-o-Matic bridge, which should mean rock-solid tuning throughout.

Chambered

Both models feature a chambered mahogany body that is paired with an arched laminated maple top and a mahogany neck. The neck has a 12” radius ebony fretboard, fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets, plus a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and has a set of big block mother of pearl inlays.
