Coming together with a fresh take on classic formulas, the Gretsch Electromatic CVT Double-Cut is an exciting version of a Gretsch icon. Promoting style, sound, and playability as priorities in equal measures, the Electromatic CVT is a knockout of a model for any player to get into.

Starting out simply with a double-cutaway mahogany body with beveled contours, this solidbody slips easily under the arm and across the body when slung over the shoulder with a strap. From there, a bolt-on mahogany neck connects in hand with a speedy Performance "C" profile neck shape and a bound laurel fingerboard for easy fretting. The guitar's Medium Jumbo frets and twelve-inch radius inspire fast playing up and down the fingerboard for dynamic playing at every level.

These features for playability are bolstered by the Electromatic CVT's sonic engine, driven by two Twin Six humbucking pickups. The two pickups, wired with a treble bleed circuit, play with heat and expression for any type of music. Onboard, a wraparound bridge with adjustable saddles offers easy stringing and a strong transfer of motion from string to body.

Totally, the Electromatic CVT is a fiery and reliable solidbody for writing a new Gretsch chapter.
