Gretsch Broadkaster LX Center Block
Electric Guitar

Modern Gretsch power with refined feel and full-spectrum performance

The Gretsch Broadkaster LX Center Block Electric Guitar is built for players who want modern Gretsch tone, exceptional performance, and the control to push into new sonic territory. With its redesigned center block construction, Pro Twin Six humbucking pickups, and refined body design, this model delivers the kind of articulate, high-volume response that works beautifully on stage, in the studio, and anywhere clarity and punch matter.

Focused tone with faster attack and added punch

At the heart of the Broadkaster LX is Gretsch's redesigned Channel Core center block, built from a combination of maple and spruce for faster attack and enhanced midrange presence. That design helps the guitar stay focused and musical at higher volumes while preserving the depth and liveliness players want from a center block instrument.

Comfortable access across the neck

A refined body design with deeper cutaways makes upper-fret access easier and more natural, giving the Broadkaster LX a more performance-friendly feel for lead playing and modern technique. The standard U-shaped maple neck, 24.6-inch scale length, and 12-inch-radius ebony fretboard with rolled edges create a smooth, inviting playing experience, while Luminlay side dots help improve visibility in darker performance environments.

Professional control and premium hardware

Pro Twin Six humbucking pickups deliver broad, powerful tone with the clarity needed for clean passages, driven rhythm work, and expressive lead playing. A three-position pickup toggle switch, individual pickup volume controls, master volume with treble bleed circuit, and master no-load tone control with Squeezebox capacitor provide impressive tone-shaping flexibility. Premium hardware appointments including the string-thru Bigsby B7GP vibrato tailpiece, Adjusto-Matic bridge, Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut, Gotoh locking tuners, Grover strap locks, and a Gretsch deluxe hardshell case round out a package built for serious performance.

Why choose the Broadkaster LX Center Block?
