Chambered mahogany body gives you great solidbody tones
The G5232T features a chambered mahogany body with a maple top for great tone and lighter weight. You’ll love the warm tone and long sustain of this mahogany body and the bright balance of the maple top. Experience full lows and mids, as well as an incredibly smooth high-end sizzle. Beyond that, the G5232T’s chambered body supplies you with robust depth and resonance. The guitarists here have paired this Gretsch solidbody with a wide range of tube amps, and the results have been stellar every time.
Blacktop Filter’Tron pickups give you classic Gretsch humbucker tone
When you want classic Gretsch guitar tone, you need real Gretsch humbuckers. That’s why Gretsch gave their G5232T Electromatic Double Jet FT a pair of Blacktop Filter’Tron pickups. Unlike most humbuckers, these traditional Gretsch pickups give you a characteristically bright and open sound that’s jangly in the highs with an almost single-coil bite. Their more typical humbucker-sounding bass also complements the G5232T’s resonant body, adding a woody thump and bark to its lower register.
Exceptionally flexible electronics
The G5232T allows you to summon plenty of tonal textures. Volume controls for each pickup help you create a perfect balance between warmth, bite, and brilliance when both pickups are engaged. The master tone control fine-tunes your sound once you’ve got the pickups dialed in. Finally, a 3-position toggle allows you to select pickup combinations quickly and easily. And of course, you’ll get a sweet tone from the individual neck and bridge pickups.
