Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent.
SP Luthier Notes: Some of the frets were coming out of the fretboard, and our luthier reseated them and glued them into place. All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. No further work was needed.
Discover the Gretsch G6228 Professional Collection Jet, a truly magnificent musical investment! Finished in striking Bourbon Flame on a chambered mahogany body with an arched maple top, this instrument is a visual and sonic powerhouse. The chambered build offers a warm, resonant tone that can truly roar when pushed. Powered by Tim Shaw-designed Broad'Tron BT-65 humbuckers, you get incredible versatility from sparkling cleans to aggressive crunch. The comfortable "U" shape mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard is a dream to play, and premium features like Gotoh locking tuners ensure absolutely rock-solid performance.
