General

The SAT-TMBK is a transparent black hybrid guitar from Crafter's Slim Arch Series. This electric guitar has a hollow body and a wooden bridge with a built-in Piëzo pickup. The guitar's top has been lightly arched and is made of beautifully flamed maple. Two special, S-shaped sound holes have been cut out of the top so the CAT can be played acoustically so, whether you'd like to stay home and practice unplugged or hit up the studio or stage, the Crafter SAT offers the best of both worlds in one attractive guitar.

P90 and Piëzo Combination for a Wide Range of Sounds

The first thing to strike you about this guitar might be the cream-coloured P90 pickup by Kent Armstrong. It delivers a full and warm sound with a refreshing spark. In addition, the L.R. Baggs piëzo brings a bright, lively and open sound similar to an amplified acoustic guitar. Both pickups have their own volume and tone controls and a mini two-way switch can be used to switch between the pickups or have them both active at the same time. This way, you can mix the P90's sound with the Piëzo's for ultimate sonic diversity.

Stereo Functionality Thanks to Included Y-Cable

The Crafter SAT is fitted with a stereo jack output. If you plug in a standard mono guitar cable, you'll get the combined signal of both pickups. If you'd rather route the Piëzo's sound signal to an acoustic amplifier or PA, you can split the signal using the included Y-cable to effortlessly create a wide stereo image for enhanced spatial effects.

Gretsch Introduces the Vintage Select and Player Editions

Friday 29 January 2016

Gretsch fans can roughly be divided into two groups. On the one hand you have the purists who think the specifications from the 1950s and 1960s - the Gretsch heydays - are beyond dispute. On the other hand, you have the more practically minded guitarists who like to make modifications to their instruments. Luckily, both camps are being catered to with Gretsch's new series: the Vintage Select Editions and the Players Editions.
