AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Gretsch Abbey Road Studiomatic captures the spirit of one of the most iconic recording locations in the world, blending classic hollow-body resonance with modern studio-ready versatility. Its 2.25" maple body and parallel bracing deliver that unmistakable Gretsch chime—airy, punchy, and full of harmonic texture—while the ebony fingerboard adds clarity and refinement to every note. The custom Filter’Tron pickups and exclusive Rumble Filter circuit, developed with Abbey Road engineers, give you a wide palette of tones that move effortlessly from vintage warmth to modern definition.
With a smooth “C”-shaped neck, Bigsby B60 vibrato, and gold hardware, the Studiomatic plays as beautifully as it looks. Whether you’re tracking in the studio, shaping ambient soundscapes, or fronting a live band, this limited-edition instrument is designed to inspire. Complete with a fitted case and a custom Abbey Road head badge, it's a uniquely expressive guitar built for players who want rich tone, bold character, and true recording heritage in every performance.

Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.
