Gretsch Guitars’ G5260T Electromatic Jet Baritone with Bigsby captures essential Jet power and fidelity at sub-sonic levels. The Jet Baritone rattles foundations with dual Gretsch mini humbucking pickups that capture thundering lows while retaining a piano-like articulation and definition for intoxicating sonic size and width at every level of gain. Simple tone shaping is provided by a three-position toggle switch as well as master volume and master tone controls.

An elongated 29-3/4" scale accommodates lower tunings without loss of string tension, while the sturdy bolt-on maple neck is topped with a comfortable 12" radius laurel fingerboard featuring 22 medium-jumbo frets.

Other premium features and appointments include an anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge, Bigsby B50 tailpiece, pearloid Neo-Classic inlays, white binding with purfling and chrome hardware.

    Drop A and a bigsby Nice guitar complete with a bigsby which attempts to bend a 29.75" scale drop A baritone. The bigsby is more helpful at limiting neck dove than assist with tone. Nice guitar with unique mini humbuckers which are more like Epiphone than a firebird type. A decent value for an unusual and attention gathering guitar.

    The Gretsch Guitars G6238 Duo Jet and Pro Jet Guitar Case should be a good choice.
