Solidbody electric guitar for deep tunings
The Gretsch G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone Bigsby Midnight Sapphire combines classic Jet solidbody flair with the benefits of lower tunings. Sonically, the extended 29.75" scale length (756 mm) and two Gretsch Mini humbuckers create the foundation for assertive and responsive sounds in the lower registers of baritone tuning. Last but not least, the Gretsch G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone Bigsby Midnight Sapphire is composed of solid Hardware in the form of a Gretsch Adjusto-Matic bridge, tuning-stable die-cast tuners and a Bigsby B-50 vibrato system.
Singlecut design with extra-long scale length.
For the classic single-cut design of the Electromatic Jet Baritone electric guitar, Gretsch relies on a solid mahogany body and a maple neck fastened by four screws. The extra-long scale length of 29.75" (756 mm) guarantees a fast-responding sound that accurately reproduces the low registers of the factory-set B tuning. The "Thin U" neck profile, which is not too strong, also promises comfortable playing characteristics up to the highest registers of the 22-fret Indian Laurel fingerboard.
Gretsch Mini Humbucker
As pickup for the Electromatic Jet Baritone guitar Gretsch chooses two in-house Mini Humbuckers. Placed in the neck and bridge positions, the classic pickups deliver full and juicy humbucker tones, while the design's narrower magnetic field produces vocal and articulate mids for leads that cut through the tape mix. Both pickups are here classically controlled via straight electronics with Master Volume and Master Tone controls as well as a 3-way toggle switch for pickup selection.
Bigsby Vibrato
Last but not least, a solid hardware setup in Vintage-Style completes the G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone Bigsby Midnight Sapphire guitar by Gretsch. The tailpiece is the traditional Bigsby B50 vibrato system, which can be used to create shimmering pitch modulations for embellishing melodies and chords. On the body, a Gretsch Adjusto-Matic bridge also guarantees optimally adjusted intonation and string action, while die-cast tuners on the headstock ensure accurate and robust tuning.
