Description

From Gretsch:

Sleek yet aggressive, the G5422TG Limited Edition Electromatic Hollow Body Double-Cut with Bigsby and Gold Hardware has a thinner, fully hollow build with a true Filter’Tron voice that captures resonant hollowbody sound with a more present and chiming voice. The arched maple top features sound post bracing and oversized F-holes for increased acoustic projection, while the smooth maple neck hosts a rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets and pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays. From jazz to blues to British Invasion tones, dual Black Top Filter’Tron pickups create an ideal, versatile sonic palette radiating with bright, warm tones and a distinctive punch. Tone is fully customizable with a flexible and upgraded control layout consisting of a three-position pickup toggle switch, master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, bridge and neck pickup volume controls. Other fine features include a secured Adjusto-Matic bridge, Graph Tech NuBone nut, stylish G-arrow knobs and Bigsby B60G vibrato tailpiece for added shimmer. This G5422TG also enjoys many classic vintage Gretsch appointments like aged white body binding and multi-ply purfling, gold pickguard, vintage-style openback tuning machines and gold hardware.
