Hollowbody Electric Guitar with Maple Top, Back, and Sides, Maple Neck, Laurel Fretboard, 2 Humbucking Pickups, and Bigsby B60 Vibrato Tailpiece – Snowcrest White

A Mass of Classic Gretsch Tone

Take home the Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic double-cutaway hollowbody electric guitar to get that unmistakable Gretsch twang. Incredibly affordable, yet laden with professional features, the G5422TG Electromatic double-cutaway hollowbody boasts vintage-voiced Gretsch FT-5E Filter’Tron humbucking pickups and an Adjusto-matic bridge that has become synonymous with Gretsch. Take the Bigsby B60 for a spin and you’ll find sensational vibrato by the boatload. Plus, with a 3-way pickup switching and four controls, including a master volume, you’ll have no problem conjuring the legendary tones the G5422TG hollowbody was built for.

Introducing FT-5E Filter’Tron humbucking pickups

First designed in 1957, Gretsch Filter’Tron pickups have adorned some of the company’s finest guitars ever since — classic Gretsch tone just can’t be beat! The G5422TG Electromatic hollowbody features FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups. These stellar humbuckers capture incredible output and sustain devoid of hum and crackle, a big reason why they are quickly becoming favorites among our guitarists.

Redesigned trestle-block bracing

Traditionally, trestle-braced guitars feature two U-shaped braces that run parallel from the neck joint to the bridge, simultaneously bracing the top and the back. This pattern enhances sustain and resonance but falls victim to feedback. Now, Gretsch unveils a new trestle block bracing design that enhances the performance of the fan-favorite trestle bracing pattern. Trestle-block bracing facilitates more contact between the top and back while adding extra stiffness to the traditional design. Trestle-block bracing flaunts a quick, snappy attack, more sustain, and greater resonance — all without the dreaded hollowbody feedback.

Exceptionally flexible electronics

The Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic allows you to pull off a lot of tonal tricks. Volume controls for each pickup help you create a perfect balance between warmth, bite, and brilliance when both pickups are engaged. The master tone control lets you fine-tune your sound once you have the pickups dialed in. And thanks to the master volume control, you can take your tube amp from clean to growling without changing the balance between your pickups. And of course you’ll get sweet tone from the neck and bridge pickups individually.

Gretsch twang and punch

Gretsch’s G5422TG Electromatic hollowbody electric guitar puts the company’s unmistakable tone in a hollowbody that’s sure to please. With top-end features like the FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups and expertly applied body, F-hole, and fretboard binding, players searching for the powerful tones of Brian Setzer, Billy Duffy, and Duane Eddy can rejoice in the quality of their new guitar.
