Gretsch Streamliner Jet Electric Guitar, Nightshade Purple

The Gretsch Streamliner Jet is a no-frills tone-centric electric guitar that is loaded with features to provide exceptional performance, superb playability and solid reliability at a great value. Featuring humbucker pickups, a Fast "C" neck, and vintage-inspired hardware, the Streamliner Jet contains all you need to riff hard and solo strong without breaking the bank.

The Streamliner Jet features a mahogany solidbody with comfort appointed contours—bound carved top, belly contour, and rounded heel—to make playing effortless and natural. Touting a Nightshade Purple high gloss finish, this guitar dazzles at every gig, jam, and practice. A mahogany neck is offered in the Fast "C" profile for fluid movement across the 24.88" scale length. Affixed to the neck is a bound Indian laurel fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid neo-classic thumbnail inlays for that signature Gretsch look and feel.

For further comfort, Gretsch implements an adjustable wrap-around bridge for proper intonation, easy maintenance, and brilliant resonance. In addition, a GraphTech NuBone nut doubles down on intonation and keeps the strings space adequately. As the final point in the pitch line of duty, die-cast sealed tuning machines offer tuning stability in the face of gnarly riffs and bends galore.

Amplifying this Streamliner Jet are a set of HotWire high output ceramic humbucker pickups—one found in the neck position and the other in the bridge position—to deliver both modern excellence and vintage mojo for bold tones that drive without losing clarity. Gretsch has kept it simple as far as controls go, appointing a master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector to do the heavy lifting. These controls are adorned with vintage-inspired knurled radio knobs and tips for a sleek throwback look.

Reliable, powerful, and affordable—let the Gretsch Streamliner Jet be your next go to electric guitar.
