Flexible electronics include individual volume controls, a master volume with treble bleed, and a master no-load tone control with “Squeezebox” capacitor for precise tonal shaping. A string-through Bigsby B7GP vibrato, Adjusto-Matic bridge, Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut, Gotoh locking tuners, and Grover strap locks ensure excellent tuning stability and expressive performance. Finished with gold hardware and supplied in a Gretsch deluxe hardshell case, the Broadkaster Jr. LX in elegant Tropic Aura is a premium choice for discerning players seeking classic Gretsch style with modern performance.
