Gretsch single-cut jet, features chambered mahogany body with a maple top that produces a rich, present mid-range that accentuates big lows and shimmering highs. Stock pickups (which have more of a PAF vibe) have been replaced with GFS Surf 90 Alnico 2 Rockabilly pickups. These have a decidedly more single coil/P-90 vibe, neck pickup is 7.2 k-ohms DC resistance, bridge is 7.8. Pickups are reverse wound/reverse polarity so that in the middle position they're essentially acting as a humbucker, eliminating any 60-cycle hum.
