NAMM 2018: Gretsch celebrates its 135th anniversary in 2018 and is set to debut two new Limited Edition models in celebration of this milestone, alongside three new Jet models - two for the Players Edition series and one for the Electromatic range.
Aside from the mouth-watering big-bodied Anniversary models, the most exciting news is the involvement of pickup wizard Tim Shaw in the development of the Gretsch Broad’Tron™ BT65 pickups that feature in the Gretsch BT with "V" Stoptail.
In addition to the Jet-centric guitar announcements, there are also several new finish options for the Junior Jet Bass on the way. Browse on for more detail and pictures of all the new models and finishes coming from Gretsch in 2018.
