Another modern classic. Building on the success of the original ElectraJet, the ElectraJet VT combines the thicker, meatier voice of the ElectraJet body with a tele-style configuration. Fat, thick and mean but still able to twang, spank and chime. The sound is truly reminiscent of traditional "tele" tones but fuller, with more dimension, while still retaining the ability to cut and bite. The ElectraJet VT exudes classic vintage tones with just a little "more" of everything. Country, jazz, rock, funk and blues, it's all there. And the ElectraJet VT feels completely natural, ergonomic and balanced, ... and of course plays like a dream. Featuring master-grade, tone-tapped woods, ultra-thin nitro-lacquer finish and handcrafted Grosh pickups. Pure Passion - Pure Tone.

CRAIG'S POV
This is a very special pre-owned ElectraJet from the gifted hands of Don Grosh. I had Don make this for me in 2010, using his very last piece of museum-grade birdseye maple for the neck. It's simply stunning, and in nearly perfect condition. For the beauty of the neck alone, it's a guitar that's hard to part with. It's that gorgeous. (As is the body - a Don Grosh Original - and the finish, fretwork, and that great tortoise pickguard). Lovely.

As for the sound, well this has everything you'd want to satisfy your Tele yearnings. But it'll deliver much more than you might expect. Part of it has to do with the wood, of course, but there's more to it than that.

The hand-wound Grosh pickups are designed specifically for this guitar. The sum total is like a Tele on steroids - its sound is just "larger" in every dimension. That's the simplest way for me to put it. Think of Tele goodness. Expanded. Beefier. More muscular. Yeah. Like that. It also comes with a four-way switch to expand your tonal options.

It's a great guitar. Don took all the things you love about T-style guitars, added his own unique body shape, shaped a neck with wood to die for, hand wound the pickups to match, and crafted an instrument I think you'll treasure.
