    Gretsch makes their own pickups. They are darn good in pickup making.

      I own a Gretsch G2010 guitar. With new Gretsch pickups. Those are really really nice. And I have played Gibson Bill Lawrence pickups for over 30 years and nothing came close.

      I have a Gretsch with staple P90s and a 1954 Gibson with original staple P90s. They both sound good and articulate, but the Super 400 is much brighter.
      I am going to test the values of the pots and caps and copy them in the Gretsch.
      I love the tone of their new filtertrons and definitely need to go try their screw P90s.

    I purchased one of these a couple of months ago. I took off the wraparound bridge and added a floating bigsby bridge and also added a B3 vibrato. Great guitar. These are the best import P90s I've heard in a production guitar. Worlds better the the P90s epiphone had in their stuff in the early 2000s

    Don't forget, for those new to Gretsch, the control layout and master volume set up is unique too. There is a lot that can be dialed in with the knobs on these to blend the pickups together.

    from Leo: Nice guitar! I have the similar one with Broadtron pickups. The only mod I did was to add a good roller bridge in place of the Les Paul bridge. I also polished and tfe lubed the roller. It really smoothed the function of the Bigsby. It has been really stable ever since.

    Pound for pound the best guitar. For the intermediate, a bone nut and roller saddle bridge upgrade makes it tune stable for little money. I went a little further and installed $300 worth of TV Jones and have a guitar that I like as much as my $2500 to $3000 pro series Gretsches. At the end of the day, it's a entry level pro upgradable platform. Buy one now!

    As a Viking fan and a guy who has the amethyst as a birthstone, I LOVE that color! As a fan of guitars that have personality, I love Gretsch guitars. And a as a fan of P90s, I love the tone. I know you make great pickups and probably have a shelf full of them, so replacing the pickups makes perfect sense. But personally, I think this thing sounds killer as is. I’d probably do a roller bridge, Graphtec nut and locking tuners (eventually), but man that thing is sweet just as it is, especially at that price!

    I have been suffering from the Gretsch-itch for a couple years now. Last week, Reverb caught me looking at a used Rancher with Bigsby and sent me an offer for a new one...which I trolled back at them for the same price as the used one and they...accepted. So that happened, and this particularly spicy meatball is heading from Michigan to South Carolina shipped without a case through like four jumbo weather systems. Confidence is high that it will never have great tuning stability, but it sure looks cool AF and fun. Fingers crossed it arrives in one piece tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you dial in this Jet so I can learn a thing or two.

    Cheap Gretsch guitars are outstanding in every way! When I started out, cheap guitars were crap. Now after 45 years of playing, it's the golden age of the cheap guitars. If you can't find a good cheap guitar, check out a Broadkaster or an Electromatic.

    i picked up a G5655T-QM last year, which more spendy than the one you have here, only thing negative i can say about it is the pickups are a little low output. having said that, all my amps have a volume knob, so its not a big deal.

    I have a non-tremlo Streamliner (which I absolutely LOVE!) and it had the same tuning issues. I replaced the bridge with a no-name roller bridge and the problem was completely fixed. The stock Broadtron pick-ups sound absolutely fantastic to me. Fit and finish exceptional for the price-point. Massive value for money. I'll defiantly be getting another Gretch in the future, and I've always wanted a P90 guitar. That Jet Two 90 fits the bill very nicely (except I'd forgo the Bigsby).

    That purple amethyst color is stunning! Gretsch always comes out with fantastic colors and finishes. I have the same Electromatic but in Cadillac green and with FilterTrons. I love the looks and of course it has that Great Gretsch Sound! The only issue that I have is that the Bigsby is a little temperamental. But that’s not the fault of the guitar but down to user error😅 I need to learn how to dial it in. I wouldn’t mind picking up another one in this color but with a fixed bridge.

  • @rockerbuck967
    @rockerbuck967 2 месяца назад

    I have an Electromatic and wasn't happy about the pickguard either - it covers the height screws for the pickups on the high string side. I changed the position of the metal bracket, and that at least lets me adjust the bridge. Adjust the neck pickup while you have it off too. Also, there was a rubber washer on the screw next to the next to the neck pickup, and I took that off and screwed it down tight. Made a world of difference.
    Other than all that, this one's a keeper for me. I'm going to try flatwound strings now to see what that does, just for fun.

    Interesting post 🤔 I am a huge fan off Gretsch guitars but !!! Im not overly fond of tremelo systems so all my Gretsch guitars have their bigsbys taken off, stored away and i just have the Gretsch cut tailpieces on them a, they look fantastic IMO and b, when you pop a string on stage the guutar still stayes in tune unlike a trem that goes out off tune, fyi i never change the pick ups either as Gretsch pick-ups are unique and have their own special soud, i have found that everyone off my gretschs just have their own voice so no, they keep their uniqueness and if I want something different I just play my Gibson or fender but thats not very often as Gretsch for me are in their own special place regardless of were the instrument is made

  • @RobertFisher1969
    @RobertFisher1969 5 месяцев назад

    As someone who only buys low-end guitars (so that I can have a bunch 🙂), the reason I haven’t bought a Gretsch yet: (1) I’d buy a solidbody Gretsch with Filter’trons, but they only put Broad’trons in their lower end models. And, yeah, I could swap those for the Filter’trons that would fit in the same route, but I could do that on any guitar with humbuckers. (2) I want a single-cut semi-hollow/center-block guitar. But their single-cuts are all fully-hollow and their center-blocks are all double-cuts. I’ll probably end up with the Epiphone Uptown Kat. (Which even has the Gretsch control layout.) But having a couple of Epiphones already, I’d go with a Gretsch instead if they made one.

    @pyratoothNL 5 месяцев назад

    TBH that's a disappointment. Sub 400/500 bucks guitars generally don't have great tremelos. A Gretsch is a rock'n'roll, rockabilly machine and although you don't need to do dive bombs and flutters, you expect to be able to perform moderate tremelo action without it going out of tune. Same with the tuners, I'd expect at least more consistency above 500 bucks because it's a little on the high-end of the scale to call it a modding platform. Looks cool and sounds fine, very warm though like you said maybe not quite the aggression you get from a classic P90.
