The Limited Edition Gretsch Sidewinder stands as a testament to Gretsch's commitment to crafting instruments with a unique identity, tailored for musicians seeking that classic Gretsch twang and bite. This model is distinguished by its exclusivity and a suite of features designed to deliver a tonal experience that's both rich and articulately venomous.

At the heart of the Sidewinder's design is its chambered mahogany body paired with an arched flame maple top. This combination not only enhances the guitar's aesthetic appeal but also contributes significantly to its sound. The chambered body allows for increased resonance, enabling air to flow and interact between the top and body, which amplifies harmonic richness and creates a tone that's lively and full of character.

The neck is crafted from mahogany, topped with a 12" radius ebony fingerboard adorned with 22 medium jumbo frets and elegant mother of pearl Neo Classic™ thumbnail inlays. The use of Graph Tech Tusq XL for the nut further exemplifies Gretsch's attention to detail, ensuring tuning stability and optimal string vibration.

Driving the Sidewinder's sonic capabilities are the custom-wound TV Jones pickups. These pickups are meticulously designed to capture the quintessential Gretsch sound, delivering bright, spanky highs, smooth mids, and a tight, focused low end. Whether you're aiming for twangy country licks, biting rockabilly riffs, or anything in between, these pickups provide the versatility to explore a wide range of genres.

Control over the guitar's sound is finely tuned through individual pickup volume controls, a master no-load tone, and a master volume with treble bleed circuit. This setup offers players nuanced control over their sound, allowing for precise adjustments to achieve the desired tonal balance.

The Sidewinder's aesthetics are as striking as its sound. The flame maple top, finished in a luxurious Bourbon Stain nitrocellulose lacquer, exudes elegance and sophistication. Complementing this are the nickel hardware, plain top metal knobs, and a tortoise plexi pickguard with a unique coiled snake motif, all of which contribute to the guitar's distinctive look.

Functionality is enhanced by the Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with unplated brass saddles and pinned ebony base, coupled with a String-Thru Bigsby® B3P tailpiece. This setup ensures stable tuning and smooth vibrato action. The inclusion of Gotoh locking tuners and Grover strap locks further attest to the instrument's reliability and stage-ready design.

Included with the guitar is a G6238 Gretsch® deluxe hardshell case, ensuring that your investment is protected whether at home or on the road.

The Limited Edition Gretsch Sidewinder is more than just a musical instrument; it's a piece of art, designed for discerning players who value tonal quality, playability, and visual appeal. Whether on stage or in the studio, it promises to be a reliable companion, offering a tonal palette that inspires creativity and expression.
