Great Guitar, Great deal!

Excellent quality, flawless condition, great deal! This guitar is really well crafted, this Japanese model is far superior to the ones made in other countries.

This beast gives the Gibson Les Paul a run for its money

Beautifully crafted guitar. The locking tuners are great, which makes changing strings a snap. The pickups, modeled after PAFs, have a very high output and great for rock and metal.

Beautiful guitar, sounds great, fast shipping from Adorama. It was double boxed, plus the guitar case, so it got to me without damage.

Gretsch G6228 Players Edition

This is a great guitar. I've never owned a Gretsch before. I wish I had tried them out a long time ago. I love the neck profile. I think it's just a bit slimmer than a '59 Les Paul. The workmanship seems to be flawless.

Power, Fidelity & Complete Tonal Control
The all-new G6228 Players Edition Jet BT with V-Stoptail gives you powerful overdrive and shimmering cleans at the stomp of a switch.

Chambered Mahogany Bodies - Thick and Acoustically Rich
Each Jet BT begins with a select 1.85" mahogany body with maple top that produces a strong, balanced mid-range, while the chambered body delivers a smooth attack and extended bandwidth that is remarkably wide and harmonically rich.
