Gretsch G6131T Players Edition Jet FT Firebird Red with Bigsby

Gretsch G6131T Players Edition Jet FT Firebird Red with Bigsby Overview

Combining over five decades of tonal magic with unquestionable Gretsch know-how, the G6131T Players Edition Jet will take you way back to Gretsch's golden age.

Two High Sensitive Filter'Tron™ pickups provide the classic power and tone associated with the Jet, and the timeless Gretsch excellence is continued with a laminated Maple top over a select Mahogany body, which due to its generous resonance chambers, is both light and lively sounding. Players Edition control and performance is ensured by a Mahogany neck with Rosewood fingerboard, which has been set lower for greater comfort; a full-access rolled cutaway, and tapered heel further enhance this guitar's incredible playability.

A pinned Rosewood-based Adjusto-Matic™ bridge, with a Bigsby® B7CP String-Thru Vibrato Tailpiece provide the classic Gretsch juice, while Gotoh® Locking Tuners and a Graph Tech® TUSQ® XL nut provide excellent tuning stability which, when wrapped up with its exceptional Firebird Red gloss finish, make this Gretsch a truly memorable guitar.

What Gretsch say:

For 65 years the Gretsch Jet has fueled stages and studios, producing some of the greatest sounds in rock 'n' roll history. The all-new G6129T Players Edition Jet™ FT with Bigsby® is the culmination of over half a century of tonal and performance magic.

Chambered Mahogany Bodies — Fat, Full and Acoustically Rich: Like its forebears, the Jet FT begins with a select mahogany body with maple top that produces the signature strong, punchy response that has made the Jet famous. For the Players Edition Jet FT, we chose a 1.85" depth along with modern chambering to deliver a tighter, more controlled attack that still retains incredible articulation.

High Sensitive Filter'Tron™ Pickups – Classic Power and Clarity: A pair of High Sensitive Filter'Tron pickups complements the Jet FT's chambered body to produce a wide, balanced and transparent tone that is equally adept at cutting through the mix or laying solid sonic foundation.

Players Edition Comfort, Control & Performance: Responding to players' need for increased comfort, the Jet FT features a lowered neck set that greatly improves fret-hand mobility while also giving the picking hand a closer approach, increasing comfort and accuracy. Our new full-access rolled cutaway and tapered heel allows the free access to upper frets without awkward pivoting or palm obstruction. This sleek design remains hidden, preserving a vintage aesthetic – a critical feature that is meant to be felt, not seen.

The Jet FT comes equipped with additional Players Edition features that give you total control of your tone and performance.

Comes with a hardcase.
