Power, Panache, and Limited-edition Sonic Character
Another excellent entry in Gretsch's iconic Electromatic series, the Electromatic Pristine LTD Center Block Double-Cut is brimming with semi-hollowbody sonic opportunities and endless expressive potential, masterfully crafted for that distinctive Gretsch twang. Its resonant mahogany body and neck are complemented by a pair of P-90E pickups, a comprehensive suite of sound controls, and a Bigsby vibrato to ensure you're never short on tone-crafting possibilities, much to the delight of Sweetwater's guitarists. With its chambered spruce center block, Thin "U"-shaped neck, and dazzling visual panache, the Gretsch Electromatic Pristine LTD expertly mixes heritage craftsmanship with modern possibilities.
Carefully selected tonewoods
Debate abounds as to how much of a difference tonewoods can make with electric guitars, but no matter your persuasion, it's all but impossible to deny the importance of a solid tonal foundation, and Gretsch's luthiers spared no effort in crafting as much for the Electromatic Pristine LTD. Featuring a body and neck of mahogany, this 6-string offers premier resonance and richness in tone, making a fantastic semi-hollow tonal foundation. Up top, a laurel fingerboard supplies a crystalline veneer to your tone, resulting in a distinctive mix of gorgeous tonality and glassy panache that complements the natural nuanced tonal profile of this limited-edition throughout.

Semi-hollow sonic shaping
A chambered spruce center block contributes to the unique output of this double-cutaway guitar. This center block not only reduces weight while increasing feedback rejection, but also augments your tone with plenty of presence that won't compromise on the snap and percussive-style attack you'd expect with iconic Gretsch twang. Bringing these detailed sonics to life is a set of P-90E single-coil pickups, conjuring a full range of tones from aggressive and overdriven to delicate and clean while retaining an exceptional balance of articulation, note separation, and transparency. A straightforward control scheme lets you further hone your tones with exacting precision, with dedicated volume controls for each pickup, a Master Tone knob, and a 3-way pickup selector.
Full-spectrum expression
With 22 frets of potential to explore, the Electromatic Pristine LTD boasts a Thin "U"-shaped neck profile that seamlessly accommodates most play styles, mixing comfort with unfettered access to the total range of the fingerboard's 12-inch radius. Die-cast sealed tuners are joined by a Graph Tech NuBone nut and Adjusto-Matic bridge to ensure your output is reliably in-tune, buzz-free, and rock solid across the guitar's 24.6-inch scale length. And you'll be glad these appointments are present as soon as you grab hold of the Bigsby B70 vibrato to inject an immense swath of expression into your sonic profile, from subtle to soaring.
