Gretsch Broadkaster Jr. LX Center Block Midnight Sapphire w/ String-Thru Bigsby w/case

Gretsch Broadkaster Jr. LX Center Block Midnight Sapphire

Overview

The Gretsch Broadkaster Jr. LX Center Block is designed for players who want classic Gretsch character with the control and stability needed for higher-volume performance. Its compact single-cut body and redesigned Channel Core center block retain the airy, articulate response Gretsch is known for while tightening the low end and improving feedback resistance.

Finished in Midnight Sapphire with gold hardware, this model pairs vintage-inspired style with modern refinements. Pro Twin Six humbuckers, a string-thru Bigsby vibrato, and a thoughtfully laid-out control set make it equally comfortable handling clean, dynamic tones or pushed, expressive sounds on stage.

Highlights

• Redesigned Channel Core center block using maple and spruce for faster attack and focused mids
• Pro Twin Six humbuckers deliver clear, full-range Gretsch tone
• String-thru Bigsby vibrato for smooth feel and improved tuning stability
• Ebony fingerboard with rolled edges and Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays
• Gold hardware complements the Midnight Sapphire finish
