1990s GMP Roxie Duo Jet-Style Guitar Red Metalflake w/ TV Jones MagnaTron Pickups, Case

$2,099.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a circa 1990s GMP Roxie in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. GMP was founded in 1990 by a group of luthiers who had previously worked at the original Charvel/Jackson factory in San Dimas, and the Roxie was one of their first designs, originally built for Ryan Roxie of Alice Cooper's band. This iteration was produced during GMP’s original run, prior to their dissolution in 2005; it features a design that splits the difference between a Les Paul and Gretsch Duo Jet, with a (non-chambered) mahogany body, maple top, mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fretboard, sporting a gloss Red Metalflake finish, a Bigsby B7 vibrato, and an upgraded pair of TV Jones Magna’Tron humbuckers.

At 11lbs 7oz, this guitar dishes out tons of natural sustain and punch, and the tonewood complement yields a warm, midrange-forward chop faithfully captured by the upgraded TV Jones Magna’Trons. A souped-up iteration of the Filter'Tron, these boutique, USA-made TV Jones pickups deliver a combination of single coil spank and Filter’Tron-style twang, bright and chirpy with quick attack and exceptional pop and clarity. There's a hint of compression, and the staggered pole pieces result in great string-to-string balance and brightness. This GMP Roxie benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Red Metalflake finish on top is framed by cream binding, and there’s real depth to the large flake sparkle. Cosmetic wear is limited to a handful of minor dings and faint scratches on the back of the body. The gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
