Gretsch Electromatic CVT Double-Cut Wraparound & Bass Revealed
4,0 / 5,0 | 
Gretsch has just announced the new Electromatic CVT Double-Cut with Wraparound Tailpiece Guitar and Electromatic CVT Bass Double-Cut. Two new vintage-style models with a retro aesthetic.
CVT Double-Cut
These new CVT Double-Cut models expand Gretsch’s popular Electromatic lineup and offer some very retro styling for players who want something with a vintage look. Both models are solid-bodied instruments and have lots to offer without breaking the bank.
Gretsch Electromatic CVT Double-Cut
The Electromatic CVT Double-Cut with Wraparound Tailpiece comes with a solid mahogany body that has beveled contours and a bolt-on mahogany ‘Performance C-profile’ 24.6” scale length neck.
It has a bound laurel fretboard and has pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays. It has a Graph Tech NuBone nut and a nickel wraparound bridge with adjustable saddles.
This model is available in Havana Burst, Vintage White, and Wychwood finishes.
Twin Six
Pickups for this solid-bodied guitar are a pair of Twin Six humbucking models wired with a volume, tone, and a three-way toggle switch.
Available at Thomann in Havana Burst, Vintage White, and Wychwood, priced at $572/£522/€589
CVT Bass Double-Cut
Gretsch also has the CVT Bass Double-Cut model for bass players, which follows a similar solid mahogany bodied design and comes in either Bristol Fog or Vintage White finishes.
This model has a 32” scale length, bolt-on mahogany neck with the Performance C shape, and a bound laurel fretboard with pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays. Hardware includes a direct-mount 4-saddle bridge and a genuine bone nut.
Low Down
It comes equipped with the Low Down Alnico Bass single-coil (bridge) and humbucking (neck) pickups wired with a Neck Volume, Bridge Volume, and Master Tone controls. It should offer plenty of growl with this setup.
Official MSRP – $419.99
Available at Thomann in Bristol Fog and Vintage White, priced at $615/£555/€629
