Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Gretsch’s G5222 Electromatic Double Jet BT pairs two Black Top Broad'Tron pickups with a control layout that keeps pickup selection and level changes at the guitar. The three-position toggle selects bridge, both pickups or neck, while separate pickup volumes sit alongside master volume and master tone controls. A treble-bleed circuit and 22 medium-jumbo frets complete the layout. It has a double-cutaway mahogany body and neck, laurel fingerboard, anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge, V-Stoptail and Aged Natural gloss finish.
