Two Pro Twin Six humbuckers deliver a wide sound spectrum from warm clean sounds to powerful overdrive tones, supported by flexible electronics with individual volume controls, a Master Volume with treble bleed and a Master No Load Tone Control with Squeezebox capacitor. A String Thru Bigsby B7GP vibrato, an Adjusto Matic bridge, a Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut, Gotoh locking tuners and Grover strap locks ensure maximum tuning stability and expressiveness. Rounded off with gold hardware and a Gretsch deluxe hardshell case, the Broadkaster Jr. LX comes in a classy Midnight Sapphire finish and is a high quality choice for discerning guitarists who want classic Gretsch charm combined with modern performance.
The Broadkaster Jr. LX was constructed with a specially reworked channel-core center block made of maple and spruce.
