Condition:Some buckle rash on back of body.

When the Gretsch R&D team recently unearthed a Baldwin-era Filter’Tron pickup with knockout punch and phenomenal twang, they incorporated its DNA into dynamic new “Black Top” Filter’Tron pickups, which now endow Electromatic hollow-body instruments such as the G5422TDC with an electrifying new voice and identity.

The G5422TDC Electromatic Hollow Body is a sharp new Gretsch guitar with a bound double-cutaway hollow body featuring sound-post bracing and elegant bound f holes. Other features include a maple neck, bound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and hump-block pearloid inlays, silver plexi pickguard, three-position pickup switch, classic “G” arrow control knobs, rosewood-based Adjusto-Matic bridge and Bigsby-licensed B60 vibrato tailpiece, vintage-style open-back tuners and chrome-plated hardware.

Premium features include:

• Dual Black Top FiltertronTM humbucking pickups
• Gold hardware
• Versatile upgraded controls including master volume treble-bleed circuit
• Oversized bound F holes and aged multi-ply body binding
• Smaller late-50s G6120 bound headstock
• Graph Tech NuBoneTM nut
• Pearloid Hump-Block fingerboard inlays
• Gold Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece
