The Professional Collection Jet bringing back the glory of the late 80s with TV Jones tone and Bigsby vibrato
The Gretsch G6129T-89VS Sparkle Jet is an instrument that immediately tells you where it comes from. The sparkling Gold Sparkle finish, Bigsby B3 tailpiece and gold-plated hardware harken back to the late 80s, when Gretsch reinvented the Jet as a premium instrument for demanding players. This is not an entry-level model: the G6129T-89VS is part of the Professional Collection, and that is evident in every detail.
The chambered mahogany body with laminated maple top delivers an open, resonant tone with a smooth attack and a wide dynamic range. The beating heart of this instrument are the two TV Jones TV Classic pickups, the gold standard for Gretsch tone. They deliver a clear, articulate sound with a characteristic midrange presence that sounds excellent both clean and with overdrive. The master volume with treble-bleed, master tone, and separate volume controls per pickup give you full control over your sound.
The maple neck with rosewood fretboard, 12" radius, and Hump Block inlays plays smoothly and familiarly. With 22 medium jumbo frets and a 24.6" scale length, the guitar is comfortable to play for both chords and solos. The Gretsch Adjusto-Matic bridge in combination with the Bigsby B3 gives you subtle vibrato without losing tuning, thanks to the Graph Tech TUSQ XL-nut and Gotoh die-cast tuners. Delivered with case.
A guitar for the player who knows what they're looking for: authentic Professional Collection quality, unmistakable Gretsch aesthetics, and the tone of TV Jones pickups in one instrument.
