Holy Crap! That's one of the best clean tones ever! Also, that clean demo was one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've heard in a long long time. Stunning.

That great Gretsch sound! Gretsch and PRS do it right and are not ashamed to put their name on affordable instruments and want new players to join the fold. What with the great features and awesome finishes what’s not to like. Gotta love ‘em. Great job Cooper and Chris!

I agree, but Gretsch kindof has no choice, as they don't even have US-made models anymore (outside the Fender Custom Shop-made ones). The highest end Gretschs are made in Japan now, so having a "Squier" line would make no sense.

Don’t get me wrong, I love my Gretsch and these guitars are great, but oh my gosh…Coopers clean demo was beautiful. I love the chords changes.

Cooper always playing some of THE tastiest licks and riffs and whatnot on some of the juiciest guitars out there. Love it!

I bought one of the Gretsch Jets awhile back, based on your revue and experience. It does not disappoint. Thanks a bunch!

Nice playing by Cooper. Especially enjoyed the clean tones bit with the red jet.

The problem with loving music and being a guitar player is all the options out there. so many great built instruments to fit any style and virtually any budget. Thanks for keeping me broke with you gear demos lol. Keep rocking everyone!

This demo made a sale. I now own and love a midnight sapphire Gretsch Jet BT.

Love the review! Great job guys!

A great balanced all round demo featuring what the clean tones sound like,something rarely done.

Man, I have this same model and, after watching Cooper's demo, I'm considering buying myself another one. Genius!

Traded a Fender Duo-Sonic for a G5220 a couple of years ago. One of my favorite guitars. Slightly bigger than a Les Paul but lighter. Plays and sounds great!!!

Thank you Chris & Cooper! By the way the color is officially "Bristol Fog." Thank you for another informative & well done video gentlemen 😎👍!!!

Great video! Love the G5220

I had been looking at these Jets for awhile and kept going back and forth on them. I went to my local shop recently, saw the Bristol Fog, demoed it and layed my money down. I didn't know about these new models and colors and that one spoke to me. Love the brown and black color scheme. I have a Les Paul and just prefer single cuts but appreciate that this is different enough to warrant the purchase and offer a new playing experience. Not much has excited me about newer guitars for awhile but this one hit all the right spots for me. Definitely inspired.

@@Liam-zw1ek Yeah. It's a great guitar. I'm sure you'll love it.

I have a 2019 ltd run in Aleutian Blue. My frets down the fret board needed filing. The bridge and pots are garbage. I upgraded the pots to CTS, replaced with Gotoh Tune-O-Matic bridge is a must. Change in tuners and pickups to your liking. I have Kluson Contemporary locking tuners. Now I live it! My G5420TG made in Korea is definitely a notch up to the point where I like it almost as much as my Professional Double Anniversary made in Japan. I say almost because my Double Anniversary has an ebony fretboard vs rosewood and it resonates more.

Great picking!

Thanks guys, again

I’m really enjoying the videos you guys have been doing together. Nice to see you having fun and being yourselves! Sounds cheesy. We like it tho. Or at least I do.

Nice sound!! Perfect for rhythm guitarists & vocalists.😀🎸🎙

Great demo. I'm about convinced to find one, lol.

This was a good demo. I feel like where people go wrong in their approach to these guitars is getting stuck on what they were good for which isn’t appealing to todays new guitarists. TY for demo’ing the guitars versatile range.

thanks for the demo,,, i have the red one and its awesome,,, i feel like getting another one

got one today, frigging great sounding piece of equipment.

These have a lot of range. They can do very clean jazz tones that have more sweetness and depth than other solid bodies, and can go full on trashy. Really playable. So much bang for the buck.

I would say that this is a clean and very clear sounding guitar. And for the price very hard to beat 👍

These are some of the best budget guitars made. Gretsch have the market cornered on tone

Gretsch has some very good guitars... I tried a hollow body electromatic a few days ago and, man... it has suck a great tone... IMO I would even buy that one instead of a Gibson Casino. Great quality dude. Thanks for these reviews!

Hey y’all, love your demos and Cooper your playing ability is unreal!! Great job, have y’all done a demo yet on the Gretsch G2655T P90 FideliSonic pickups? Great sounding guitar and I’d love to hear/see Cooper’s creativity on one…keep up the great work and backstories in y’all’s content!! Cooper say hey to the folks for me!! Dave O

Darrell Braun did a great comparison between a pro series Jet with TJ Jones PowerTron pickups against a Gibson Les Paul. The Gretsch did not disappoint in any way.

I just traded an epiphone les paul standard pro for one of these, and I think I found my new favorite guitar. These things feel great, look great and rock!

It is probably Bristol, England as the city is on the southern/eastern side of the Severn Estuary which I would expect to have heavy fog. The Severn Bore is also the world's longest inland surf.

Fantastic guitars

I recently got a electromatic jet in Bristol fog great feeling guitar my biggest issue is there isn't much in the after market world like pickups and custom wirring harnesses for coil splitting and series and parallel switching

Cool and Hot! Think it's time to trade in one of my Epi LPs for one of these. Hmmm, Cadillac Green looks so nice!

Awesome!

I have two of these. My frets have been fine. I did replace the Nuts with Graphtech and put on locking tuners. Honestly with a good setup they don’t need anything else.

The doing same changes on Double cuts too?

I really wanted to like these but I had 3 of them out of the box in the last 2 weeks with multiple defects, dented fret boards, wiggly frets, indentations on the top of the body, smeared paint, etc.. Seems like the the Jr jet from Indonesia has better quality control. for some reason Gretch decided it a good idea to manufacture there more expensive electromatics in China as it states on the headstock. I gave up on gretch and bought a Fender player for about the same money and am super stoked with it. I will look into gretch still. Hoping to see them up there game on QA. Fender came with a signed off Quality control card attached to it. As for gretch.. nothing. Well let's just hope the bad eggs I got were a product of a shit Monday and they made better ones the rest of the week. 🤞🤘

Chris and Cooper meet the definition of "Worldly Cats," by their knowledge, skill and guitar talents.

I had the 5122 Electromatic before upgrading to the 6122 Country Gentleman. The Electromatic was very impressive made in Korea guitar. The sound between the two was not that different. Fit and finish was superb. The Country Gentleman is a truly remarkable guitar, and absolutely too shelf, but the Electromatic was not that far off especially for one third the price.

i'll go one step further and say the "semi-hollow version, sorta" of the jet, the g5655 is THE most underrated single cut guitar. you loose a *tiny* bit of punch at high gain when compared to the jet, but it deepens and broadens the jet's fantastic clean tones so much the trade-off is worth it. if i wanted super punchy gains, i'd get a les paul.

I'd like to see an electromatic version of the 89 vintage jet.

Love that dirty tone! What are you using for distortion/overdrive?

Cooper has the most serious face I've ever seen, it's intimidating!

Nice review guys! What colors do they offer in this model in Left Handed? Cheers from Salem, Ohio.

The best thing about these guitars is their user friendly, it's not hard to play one. However, they're relatively inexpensive and you kind of get what you pay for. Still I enjoy playing them more than say a strat because unless you got longish fingers and strong hands this is gonna be one of the better bangs for your buck. It's not a professional guitar but it's a really cool, well made step above toy.

The ones with the BTs are great but the ones with the FTs are truly something special. Just something about those pickups.

This "Ressurection" is one of the best things to ever happen in the musical instrument industry. Gretsches Quality control from my experience is at perfection or at least very close to it indeed. Affordable excellence as well!

Just had one here. Loved much about the guitar...BUT. I have never had a guitar with so many sharp frets. Literally every fret on both sides of the fretboard was unfinished and many could cause damage. The much vaunted control set up seemed to have a 3 position master volume - off/on quite loud/on very loud. There was no taper to speak of. Pity, because it could have become one of my favourites.

Just a really nice looking guitar.

Cooper is a really cultured player.

Damn you made that sound right. I want one for looks alone. But it sounds sweet too. The price is 700 now too. Is it worth that?

Wish I could play like that

Cooper's a fellow Mitski head, I see. Nice.

Gretsch just makes me think of Malcolm Young and that great sound of those hard hitting power chords. Cooper sheds an entirely different light on these guitars ( in a nice way of course ). I’ve never owned one, maybe some day.

this model have the same pickup as streamliner jr jet?

The biggest reason why I can't get myself to buy an Squire, as good as they are getting is because of the branding.

It matters a lot to own a guitar that actually has the name of the company on it. I won’t buy Fenders because they slap squire on it. I feel like if they can’t put Fender on it, then they don’t care enough about it. Just my opinion. Gretsch and Ibanez put their names on their guitars.

They sound tinny and raspy

There is only one Bristol. It's not called 'Bristol UK' ... just 'Bristol'. It's over 1000 years old. If it was Bristol (Tennessee), it would be called 'Bristol (No, the one in Tennessee) Burst'. 🙂
