Two TV Jones Classic PUs respond to all picking and fingering with a refined, articulate tone.
The traditional Gretsch controls include a picking volume control, master volume, and a 3-way tone switch to create a myriad of tonal variations and personalized tones.
The addition of the new "Squeezebox" paper-in-oil capacitor provides incredibly refined, vintage-like highs.
The standard "U" shaped maple neck features a 12" (304.8mm) radius ebony fingerboard and 22 durable medium jumbo frets (0 fret) for a memorable playing experience in any style. The guitar is also equipped with a simulated F-hole.

It features a standby switch, 3-ply laminated maple top, gold G-arrow control knob, aged white binding with black trim, gloss urethane finish, and aged pearloid thumbnail inlays.
