Tv Jones · other

The TV Jones Filter'Tron is a precise recreation of the vintage Gretsch Filter'Tron humbucker, originally built by Thomas V. Jones for Brian Setzer's Gretsch signature model. It is a lower-output, well-balanced humbucker that retains single-coil-like clarity, chime and twang while rejecting hum, with a tight, articulate low end and a sparkling, percussive top. The result is the classic bright, woody Gretsch voice suited to rockabilly, surf, country and roots rock, cleaning up beautifully and snapping with pick attack. It pairs naturally with hollowbody guitars and loud clean amps, offering vintage character with consistent modern build quality.
