Gretsch G6659TFM-DCH Players Edition Broadkaster Flame Maple, Dark Cherry Stain

Gretsch G6659TFM-DCH Players Edition Broadkaster Flame Maple, Dark Cherry Stain Overview

With its 14" tiger flame maple Broadkaster body style, Gretsch's G6659TFM-DCH Players Edition Broadkaster Jr. joins their impressive range of centre block guitars.

Classic looks and a unique tone are just two of many indisputable Gretsch qualities, and having more than its fair share of both, this guitar will certainly not disappoint. The chambered spruce centre block not only strengthens the guitar, but also enhances sustain and definition, whilst also limiting the likelihood of feedback at louder volumes - allowing its two Full'Tron humbucking pickups to fully release every bit of that glorious Gretsch juice; there's plenty of classic Gretsch chime here, with balanced lows, and a pronounced mid response that's the perfect punch for overdriven amps. Add in a lower-set neck for increased playing comfort, and the essential Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, and it becomes obvious that this Players Edition Broadkaster is ready to astound whether on stage, at home, or in the studio.

What Gretsch say:

Gretsch’s time-honored “Broadkaster” name now adorns the flagship guitars of its center block lineup, crafted for full-spectrum sound at high volume with powerful new pickups and a chambered spruce center block that enhances body resonance for more organic tone and comfortably lighter weight.

Built to perform, the G6609TFM Players Edition Broadkaster® Center Block Double-Cut with String-Thru Bigsby® and Flame Maple features a stunning tiger flame maple body with a matching headstock in handsome Dark Cherry Stain and Bourbon Stain finishes. Two new U.S.-made Full’Tron™ pickups deliver full-spectrum sonic range with a growl unlike any other pickup, in addition to classic Gretsch chime, balance and brilliance with a dash of extra-mid concentration for powering through overdriven and distorted passages at full volume.
