collapse expand iconDescription

The Gretsch Nashville Hollow Body electric guitar delivers classic Gretsch tone and style with modern enhancements for an inspiring playing experience. Featuring a 16" hollow maple body, ebony fingerboard and Gretsch's Broad'Tron pickups, this instrument produces a bold, resonant sound with articulate highs and robust low end. Upgrades like a String-Thru Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, pinned Adjusto-Matic bridge and Gotoh locking tuners provide exceptional tuning stability and control over your tone. Expressive and versatile, the Nashville Hollow Body gives you a vintage vibe with thoroughly modern performance.

Hollow Maple Body Resonates with Warmth

The Nashville Hollow Body's all-maple hollow body construction produces a rich, balanced tone with impressive resonance. The hollow design enhances sustain and creates an open, airy quality, while the maple provides a blend of warmth and brightness. You'll appreciate the guitar's acoustic-like depth and projection when playing unplugged. When amplified, the maple body helps the Broad'Tron pickups achieve a mix of crisp highs, tight lows and vintage midrange character that defined the classic Gretsch sound.

Ebony Fingerboard Offers Smooth Playability

The Nashville Hollow Body's ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, low-friction surface for effortless fretting and string bending. Ebony is a popular fingerboard wood prized for its density, hardness and stability. Its dark appearance beautifully complements the gold hardware and orange finish. A 12" radius and 22 medium jumbo frets make this neck comfortable for chording and single-note playing alike. Overall, the ebony fingerboard gives you the premium feel you want from a professional-level instrument.

Powerful and Versatile Filter'Tron Pickups

PRO-FT Filter'Tron humbucking pickups provide a powerful sound with balanced highs and lows. The bridge pickup delivers a bright, cutting tone suited for solos while the neck pickup produces a warm, round sound ideal for rhythm. A three-position toggle switch lets you select pickups individually or blend them together. Volume and tone controls for each pickup give you further tonal shaping abilities for a wide range of sounds.

Upgraded Hardware Delivers Rock-Solid Performance

High-performance upgrades on the Nashville Hollow Body, like the String-Thru Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, Adjusto-Matic bridge and Gotoh locking tuners, provide exceptional tuning stability and control over your tone. The String-Thru Bigsby vibrato tailpiece offers a smooth rocking action and positive return to pitch. The Adjusto-Matic bridge sits on a pinned ebony base for robust string mounting. Gotoh locking tuners clamp down on each string to prevent slippage. Together, these premium components give you the tuning reliability and tonal versatility needed for any musical situation.
