About This Listing

This is one of the Two Gretsch Electromatic Special Jets we have for sale! This beauty is in good to very good condition and is one solid rocker! 
All pickups/jacks/knobs work perfectly. It does have some light scratches and dings here and there.  Also it has a few battle scars on lower bout by strap lock and by round back plate which is shown in the images. Only visible from the back and the botton so does not effect the playability or the looks of this solid body Electromatic Gretsch

The pickguard is like new as it has no scratches on it at all, just some faded lettering. Also the plastic is still on the trust rod cover. Installed are New Black Dunlop Straploks!
And the Gretsch lies in like New MGMMEG Molded ABS Case.

It plays and sounds like a Gretsch should with a fast fretboard. Overall great sounding and feeling guitar w/a nice vintage tone!
Easy player and a sweet guitar. Also these Special Jet's are no longer in Production!  

Guitar has no breaks or repairs, it is not stamped used or is a 2nd and not a B- stock or a blem model.
And please realize that the price of shipping reflects the fact that this guitar comes in a case, so therefore it adds to the weight & size of the package.
We at Rocking the Shack like guitars in cases, nice and safe! And are also big fans of strap locks! Pickguards are also nice.
At the Shack we do tune ups and set ups but only when requested by customer. Unless, At times if we feel that a set up would really benefit an instrument then we just do it.
Of course every guitar deserves a good set up with new strings
At Rocking the Shack we keep climate control conditions all year round and the instruments live in a smoke free environment in their cases!
As mentioned before we love cases and strap locks for the safety and protection they offer.  Need we say more!
Pick guards are also nice for protection of the body and when matched up right they can really can bring out a hidden beauty in an instrument!

We do sell and ship to Canada but cannot list the shipping cost till we know your address and that your serious. Then we can do an estimate of that cost and send you a offer.

Sometimes it is hard to part with them, they become such good friends.

Please ask questions, know what you are getting. We are happy to help you in anyway!

Gretsch Electromatic
Basswood body for light weight
Classic Gretsch humbucker tone
Fast-playing fretboard
Installed New Black Dunlop Straploks
MGMEG Molded ABS Case

Gretsch reinvented their Electromatic line by giving the G5410 Special Jet electric guitar a wonderfully lightweight basswood body. This basswood body isn't just lighter on your shoulder than traditional mahogany, its also lighter on tone, adding crisp treble and extra bite to the Special Jet's sound. But make no mistake, the G5410 Special Jet still gives you that great Gretsch sound!

Classic Gretsch humbucker tone
Gretsch has earned a reputation for producing high-quality pickups, and the G5410 Special Jet packs two humbuckers to give you the warm glow associated with '50s Gretsch guitars. Plug into your favorite tube amplifier and select both pickups to fill the room with organic resonance and smoky tones. But flip to the bridge humbucker and peg the volume knob, and you've got a hot, biting sound at your fingertips.

Fast-playing fretboard
The rosewood fretboard on the G5410 Special Jet sports a 12" radius, perfect for fast fretwork. You'll love how fluidly your fingers navigate this fretboard, which features 22 medium jumbo frets for effortless playability.
