Product Description

As part of an all-new lineup of Electromatic Classic Hollow Body models, the G5420T is crafted with the essential semi-acoustic sound, style, playability and charm that guitarists adore about '50s and '60s-inspired Gretsch instruments. At a great price-point to boot, this can serve as the ideal next-step Gretsch or as a way into the world of hollow electric guitars. And while traditional aesthetically, the Gretsch G5420T boasts a few modern appointments that bring it up to the standards of today's generation!

Key Features

  • Laminated Maple Body — Underpins the guitar with a bright, vibrant voice. Also boasts the vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches that make a Gretsch, a Gretsch!
  • Trestle Block Bracing — All new design helps to reduce unwanted feedback, which is essential when playing onstage through a loud amplifier. By increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, this also results in the sound having a faster attack with more focus, snap, and increased sustain.
  • Classic “C”-Shaped Maple Neck — Offers a comfortable feel for improved playability and performance; topped with a 12”-radius Laurel fingerboard.
  • FT-5E Filter'Tron Pickups — Explode with huge full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition.
  • Treble Bleed Circuit — Retains the high-end in your signal when lowering the master volume knob.
  • Adjusto-Matic Bridge with Bigsby Tailpiece — Beautifully-machined bridge allows you to easily make intonation adjustments, with gorgeous Bigsby B60 tailpiece letting you make subtle on-the-fly warbles.
  • Graph Tech NuBone Nut — Innovative material doesn't damp string vibrations like plastic, but transfers the optimum frequencies to the guitar allowing for more volume, tone, and harmonics.
