Gretsch G100CE Synchromatic Cutaway (Black) Overview
Gretsch G100CE Synchromatic Cutaway (Black) Overview by GAK:
The skillful combination of wood and strings requires nothing short of mastery to produce the natural and nuanced voices that have inspired generations of singers and songwriters alike. Gretsch acoustic guitars are built with select materials and quality craftsmanship that produce a voice that is inspired by tradition yet undeniably Gretsch.
Reminiscent of the early Synchromatic of the 1940s, the G100CE Synchromatic Cutaway acoustic-electric features an arched spruce top with parallel tone bar bracing, body binding, f holes, three-piece maple neck, bound rosewood fingerboard with extra-broad frets and vintage-style pearloid wide-block inlays, single-coil Gretsch® pickup, pickguard-mounted volume and tone controls, '40s-era Synchromatic headstock shape and vintage-style pearloid Gretsch headstock logo inlay, height-adjustable Synchromatic bridge and chromatic tailpiece.
