Rediscover Antique Tone with this 140th-anniversary Center Block

Gretsch is celebrating their 140th anniversary, and with this celebration comes the Electromatic 140th Double Platinum Edition Double Cut Center Block. This axe carries the same authentic Gretsch style and appointments with exciting new features for modern players. Built with a maple top, a lightweight semi-hollow maple body, and a maple neck, this guitar is just as stunning to maneuver as it sounds. And it’s all topped off with a pair of powerful Broad’Tron humbucking pickups, delivering crisp Gretsch tones that are easily manipulated with a 3-way pickup selector switch and a volume/tone knob duo to boot. Whether you’re a vintage guitar fanatic or a devout shredder, you’ll find yourself in love with the Electromatic 140th Double Platinum Edition Double Cut Center Block.

New appointments, same old good looks

Upon arriving here, the Electromatic 140th Double Platinum Edition Double Cut Center Block left our guitarists speechless. With a collection of chrome hardware, a matching headstock, a Bigsby B70 vibrato tailpiece, and a commemorative 140th-anniversary headstock plaque, this axe will instantly become the centerpiece of any room it enters. Even its laurel fingerboard with pearloid neo-classic thumbnail inlays manages to capture the vintage look that modern guitarists still can’t get enough of. Top everything off with its gorgeous 2-tone Stone Platinum/Pearl Platinum gloss finish, and the 140th Double Platinum Edition Double Cut Center Block cements itself as both an authoritative instrument and robust work of art.

First-rate center block tone

The most recognizable feature on any center block guitar is it’s acoustics, and trust us: this guitar is chock full of audial potential. This model includes a semi-hollow body which, when paired with a center block build, allows for maximum resonance and character through both of the guitar’s F-holes. The result is an axe that proves its worth in both studio and stage settings — you won’t even need to plug it in to appreciate its wonderfully antique tone. And once you decide to amp up, you’ll be given a palette of tonal options, courtesy of the Double Cut Center Block’s three-way pickup switch.

Broad’Tron pickups deliver uncontested power

When it comes to Gretsch’s pickup choices, the Broad’Tron humbucker is known for its power — and this Double Cut Center Block bears them in style. Gretsch designed these pickups to spit out Gretsch tone at a decisive volume, amounting to a warm tone with plenty of sonic reach. Though these powerful pickups exude resonant lows and a pronounced midrange, it still manages to capture the high-end chime that’s to be expected in a Gretsch guitar. A 3-position toggle switch allows players to experiment with any combination of the two pickups, while volume knobs for each permit further tone sculpting. A master volume and a master tone knob complete the electronics on the 140th Double Platinum Edition Double Cut Center Block for tone that can blend seamlessly with other instruments while exhibiting plenty of classic Gretsch charm.
