Adorama is now offering the Gretsch G6228 Players Edition Jet BT Electric Guitar in Candy Apple Red for $1,399 shipped. That’s more than $800 in savings and the lowest price we can find. This one still sells for $2,200 at Sweetwater and ZZsounds for comparison. Featuring a V-stop tail, a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard, and a 1.85-inch mahogany body, this one sounds about as amazing as it looks. You’re also looking at aged pearloid Big Block inlays, Broad’Tron BT65 pickups, a “Squeezebox” paper-in-oil capacitor, and an anchored “Adjusto-Matic” bridge. Ratings are thin on this model but Gretsch guitars have been a mainstay in the industry for many years (founded in 1883), with some players considering it to be among the best out there.

More on the Gretsch Jet BT Electric Guitar:
The all-new G6228 Players Edition Jet BT with V-Stoptail gives you powerful overdrive and shimmering cleans at the stomp of a switch. Each Jet BT begins with a select 1.85″ mahogany body with maple top that produces a strong, balanced mid-range, while the chambered body delivers a smooth attack and extended bandwidth that is remarkably wide and harmonically rich.
