A Fine Gretsch Guitar for an Amazing Low Price!

The Gretsch Electromatic G5434 Pro Jet electric guitar is the perfect way to get your hands on a real Gretsch guitar for a wonderful low price. The G5434 Pro Jet offers you the light weight and warm sound of a chambered basswood body with a maple top. A pair of "Black Top" Filter'Tron pickups let you tap into the definitive tone of Gretsch's classic humbucker design, perfect for bell-like clean tones as well as growling overdrive. And since you're getting it from Sweetwater, you know your Gretsch G5434 Pro Jet will play beautifully right out of the box.



Gretsch Electromatic G5434 Pro Jet Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Basswood body with an arched maple top brings a new voice to the Electromatic line
  • Black Top Filter'Tron pickups give you classic Gretsch humbucker tone
  • Fast-playing fretboard
    Basswood body with an arched maple top brings a new voice to the Electromatic line
    Gretsch reinvented their Electromatic line by giving the G5434 Pro Jet electric guitar a wonderfully lightweight and resonant chambered basswood body. This basswood body isn't just lighter on your shoulder than traditional mahogany, its also lighter on tone, adding crisp treble and extra bite to the Pro Jet's sound. You'll find that this quality complements the Pro Jet's maple archtop perfectly, imbuing this guitar with a character all of its own. But make no mistake, the G5434 Pro Jet still gives you that great Gretsch sound!

    Black Top Filter'Tron pickups give you classic Gretsch humbucker tone
    When you want that classic '50s-era archtop guitar tone, you need real Gretsch humbuckers. That's why Gretsch gave their G5434 Pro Jet a pair of "Black Top" Filter'Tron pickups. Unlike most humbuckers, these traditional Gretsch pickups give you a characteristically bright and open sound that's jangly on your highs with an almost single-coil bite. Their more typically humbucker-sounding bass also compliments the G5434 Pro Jet's resonant body, adding woody thump and bark to its lower register.

    Fast-playing fretboard
    The rosewood fretboard on the G5434 Pro Jet sports a 12" radius, perfect for fast fretwork. You'll love how fluidly your fingers navigate this fretboard, which features 22 medium jumbo frets for effortless playability.

    Gretsch Electromatic G5434 Pro Jet Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
    • An incredibly affordable Gretsch guitar that gives you a traditional Gretsch experience at a great price
    • Color: 2-Tone Sunburst
    • Instantly recognizable Jet body style is extremely comfortable to play
    • Chambered basswood body and laminate maple top add bright overtones to the classic Jet body style
    • A pair of Black Top Filter'Tron pickups provide characteristic Gretsch sound
