Continuing to thin my collection, for sale is a fabulously versatile Gretsch electromatic three pickup featuring the excellent and highly articulate Super-Hi-Lo-Tron pickups, designed to emulate the scooped tone of the original Hi-Los but without the hum.
- Pickups: 3 x Super HiLo'Tron Dual-Coil Humbuckers.
- Pickup Switching: 3-Position Master Toggle (Bridge, Bridge+Neck, Neck) + 2-Way Middle Pickup Toggle (On/Off).
- Controls: 3 Individual Volume Controls (One for each pickup), Master Volume (with Treble Bleed), Master Tone.
- Body: 5-Ply Maple, 1.75" depth, 16" bout, with a chambered Spruce Center Block. Bigsby B70 tremolo.
- Neck: Maple, "U" fairly chunky but comfortable profile .
- Fingerboard: This is an early run with the rosewood fretboard (later ones are laurel) 12" Radius. "fingernail" inlays.
- Scale Length: 625 mm (24.6")
Korean built by Samick, this is not to be confused with the current three pickup chines built lower-end streamliner with Broad'tron pickups, which are more generic "PAF" in tone.
Something of a classic and increasingly hard to find these days, so grab yourself a bargain. In excellent condition with only the tiniest swirls on the headstock from srteing changes, and a little age related patination/tarnishing to the bridge and bigsby.
No case , so will need to be collected from London SW11
