Double Cut

Gretsch G5232T Electromatic FSR

Electric Guitar / HN244478

Description of product

Jet-type electric guitars, whether they are models from the basic Electromatic series or the higher Professional series, are united by the use of a solid body with one or two cutouts. These are very versatile instruments that can be used in a wide range of musical styles without any problems.

The double-cut model Gretsch G5232T Firestick Red is part of the Electromatic series. The guitar's chambered mahogany body is adorned with an arched maple top. The mahogany neck with a Thin U profile is glued to a fig fingerboard fitted with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets. Orientation on its surface is facilitated by offset position markers made of imitation mother-of-pearl (Neo-Classic Thumbnail).

The two Black Top Filter'Tron humbuckers accentuate the acoustic properties of the chambered body and provide the guitar with a balanced transparent sound with the necessary amount of clarity universally suitable for many musical styles, i.e. crystal clear tone and aggressive overdrive, depending on the player's needs. Controls in the form of two volume potentiometers (for each humbucker separately), tone shutter, overall instrument volume with Treble Bleed circuit (allowing Master Volume to be pulled down without accentuating bass frequencies) and a three-position pickup switch offer comprehensive control over the character of the sound.

Strings are housed in the company's Die-Cast tuning machines and Adjusto-Matic adjustable tailpiece with a licensed Bigsby B50 tremolo. The instrument's stylish design is accentuated by traditional elements in the form of a bright body surround complemented by black and white lines, chrome hardware and a Silver Plexi pickguard with black Gretsch company logo.
