Full Description
Sculpted for perfection
This model comes designed with a solid spruce top that delivers a broad dynamic range and yields crisp articulation. It also generates a versatile tonality which is able to accommodate numerous genres and playing styles with equal ease. To accompany its sonically pleasing solid top, Rancher Falcon Rancher comes equipped with laminated maple back and sides, adding a bright sonic characteristic to the overall sound.
The laminated maple construction also has great projection with excellent note definition, ensuring the Rancher Flacon's acoustic voice is loud and clear. Although the maple is laminated, it still offers a quality sound as well as other great properties including strength, durability, and being far less susceptible to warping and cracking in changing climates.
Effortless playability
Well-crafted from maple, the neck delivers a highly reflective tone with great sustain. With a U-shaped profile, it also offers a comfortable playing experience, especially fore those long gigs and rehearsals. The maple has been topped with a rosewood fingerboard that adds a sonic warmth to the bright tonality of this stunning electro-acoustic. Its fingerboard also offers a smooth and energetic playing experience. Aesthetically, the Rancher Falcon's neck will standout mightily on stage due to its gold sparkle binding, mother of pearl thumb inlays, and V shaped headstock branded with Gretsch's signature logo with gold sparkle inlaid details.
Ready for stage and studio
Equipped with a Fishman Isys+ preamp, the G5022CWFE-12 is perfectly suited to live and rehearsal environments, making it ideal for gigging musicians. Its on-board preamp features a 3-band EQ for basic sound tweaking, including rotary controls for bass, treble, and volume. The Fishman Isys+ also features a phase button that helps to reduce undesirable feedback when plugged in within live settings. It also comes with a built-in tuner, providing players with a bright easy-readability LED screen, making tuning up and down precise and easy within the darkest of venues.
