2008 Gretsch Electromatic Corvette G5135, equipped with a factory Bigsby vibrato for that unmistakable Gretsch shimmer. This lightweight, USA-inspired model combines vintage vibe with modern playability, delivering the punchy, articulate tones that made the Corvette a cult favorite among players.
Built with a solid mahogany body and set mahogany neck, it’s resonant, lively, and balanced. The dual Gretsch Mega’Tron mini humbuckers offer plenty of chime and bite, perfect for classic rock, surf, and rootsy blues tones. The Bigsby B50 tremolo adds expressive control while maintaining tuning stability thanks to its solid bridge and quality hardware.
Finished in a rich cherry red, this Corvette has a cool retro aesthetic and that distinctive Gretsch character — bold, bright, and dripping with attitude.
