The Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Guitar with Bigsby and Gold Hardware is a true representation of the classic 50s and 60s Gretsch sound and style. Crafted with essential Gretsch hollow-body sound, style, and playability, this no-nonsense guitar is the next step in your Gretsch journey.
At the heart of this guitar is a laminated maple body with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, as well as all-new trestle block bracing to help reduce unwanted feedback. The new trestle block design increases rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, resulting in a faster attack with more focus, snap, and increased sustain.
Complementing the maple body is an all-new Classic C-shaped maple neck, offering a more comfortable playing feel for improved playability and performance. This neck is topped with a 12-inch-radius laurel fingerboard, providing a smooth and responsive playing experience.
The true magic of the G5422TG lies in its tone. Coupled with all-new FT-5E Filter Tron pickups, the hollow build's voice explodes with a huge, full-bodied punch, classic chime, and enhanced presence, clarity, and note definition. This combination delivers a sound that is both vintage-inspired and contemporary.
The guitar's versatile control layout includes a master volume with a treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls, and a three-position pickup toggle switch. These features allow you to fine-tune your tone and explore a wide range of sonic possibilities.
Visually, the G5422TG is a standout instrument. It comes in a stunning Walnut Stain finish, complete with a gold pickguard and gold hardware. The oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, and smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock add to the guitar's classic aesthetic.
Other notable features include vintage-style open-back standard tuning machines, a Graph Tech NuBone nut, pearloid Hump Block inlays, a secured Adjusto-Matic bridge, and a Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece, all of which contribute to the guitar's exceptional playability and vintage-inspired charm.
In summary, the Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Guitar with Bigsby and Gold Hardware is a true testament to the iconic Gretsch sound and style. With its classic design, exceptional tone, and enhanced playability, this guitar is sure to inspire your musical journey and take you back to the golden era of rock and roll.
