Following the addition of the popular Elliot Easton model
Gretsch Professional guitar to the Gretsch lineup in 1999, the Gretsch
Guitar Company adds the new Elliot Easton Jet Synchromatic
Electric guitar, G1570, to their ever-expanding lineup of
Synchromatic Electrics.
The striking Elliot Easton Jet has an eye-pleasing metallic green finish
and stunning gold-plated hardware. A multiple black/white binding
elegantly surrounds the mahogany arched top body. The neck is a
three-piece mahogany with white binding on the faceplate. The
rosewood fingerboard with Neo-Classic inlays and 22 frets is also
beautifully bound. This handsome guitar comes equipped with a new
Licensed Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. Bigsby Licensed Vibratos offer
vintage effects and use the same designs as the original,
world-famous Bigsby Vibratos. A longer 24.9 inch scale gives this guitar
a quicker attack that many guitarist will surely appreciate.
Other appealing features of this guitar include two Gretsch Humbucker
pickups, a Tune-O-Matic bridge, closed-back tuners, master volume
control, bridge volume control, neck volume control, tone switch, and a
three-way pickup selector switch.
Elliot, formerly of The Cars and current lead guitarist for Creedence
Clearwater Revisited, actively assisted with the development of his
signature Gretsch professional model guitars. For more information, visit their web site at www.gretsch.com. |
