Gretsch has announced some new models in their affordable range of Electromatic guitars and basses. Here's our pick of the new models:

"Electromatic Pro Jet models take on a new voice and identity, with chambered basswood bodies and arched maple tops that resonate true to 'that great Gretsch sound,' a two-tone body colour scheme (black, gold or two-tone sunburst tops with walnut-stained back and sides) and dual 'Black Top' Filter’Tron pickups. Other classic features include rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and 'hump block' inlays, three-position pickup toggle switch, anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and stop tailpiece, 'G' arrow knobs, white pearloid Gretsch-logo pickguard and threaded/knurled strap buttons."
