Gretsch G5230T Electromatic Jet FT Single-Cut with Bigsby 'Dark Cherry Metallic' Electric Guitar

The Gretsch G5230T Electromatic Jet FT delivers the legendary Jet™ power and clarity that’s defined Gretsch tone for over six decades — now in an affordable, player-focused design. Built with a chambered mahogany body and an arched maple top, it produces a warm, resonant tone with smooth highs and punchy lows, offering exceptional balance and sustain. The set mahogany neck with a comfortable thin “U” profile and 12” radius laurel fingerboard ensures effortless playability across all 22 frets.

Equipped with Black Top Filter’Tron™ pickups, this Jet offers crisp articulation, vintage growl, and tight low-end response, perfect for everything from roots rock to modern indie. A Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece adds expressive character, while the treble bleed circuit maintains clarity at any volume. Finished in a striking Dark Cherry Metallic gloss, the G5230T embodies timeless Gretsch style with its signature silver plexi pickguard and G-Arrow control knobs.
