The Refreshingly Different Guitar

The Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby is a solidbody electric guitar for the unconventional guitarist. If you march to your own drummer, you don't want to be seen (and heard) with the same axe everyone else plays. Enter the refreshingly different G5445T Double Jet. Gretsch started with a featherweight chambered basswood body and maple top, then loaded in two "Blacktop" Filter'Tron pickups, for great gobs of glassy grunt. Next, they spec'd a Bigsby vibrato - it would be blasphemous to have a guitar like this without one. With comfy playability, affordability, and unique sonics and visuals in its corner, the Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby is a contender for your next guitar.



Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Your Sonic Arsenal Needs a Double Jet
  • Be different
  • Gretsch's legacy in American music

Your Sonic Arsenal Needs a Double Jet
If you're a recording guitarist, you've probably got more then one guitar - and you treasure each one for its unique tonality and playing feel. Consider this: the Gretsch Double Jet - with its chambered body - has a sound and feel all its own. Twin Filter'Tron pickups deliver a glassy chime that you'd be hard pressed to duplicate with any other guitar - and when pushed, they churn out a guttural grind that's tailor-made for causing your amp some serious pain. Regardless of your musical genre, you need the Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby in your sonic palette.

Be different
Hey, you don't want to sound and look like everyone else, do you? Then you certainly don't want to play the same guitars! The Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby is an axe for the iconoclast; the musician who isn't afraid to thing outside the box. Fact: if you venture onstage with a G5445T Double Jet, you're not going to be mistaken for the guitarist in the act that took the stage the night before. With its vintag-y quirky-cool visuals this Double Jet announces to your fans that they're about to hear something off the beaten path. (Once you've set the expectations, of course, now it's up to you to deliver!)

Gretsch's legacy in American music
The Gretsch G5445T Double Jet with Bigsby electric guitar is a proud part of Gretsch's legacy in American music. Everyone knows Gretsch electric guitars and drums, but did you know that got their start in 1883 as a banjo company? It wasn't long before Gretsch was making mandolins, ukuleles, and eventually flat-top guitars, contributing to the very roots of American music. So when you pick up a Gretsch guitar, you're holding more than a great axe, you're holding a piece of American music history.
