Experience the authentic hollow-body magic that defined rock 'n' roll's golden era with the G5420T Electromatic™ Classic Hollow Body Single-Cut. This guitar captures the essential Gretsch sound and style of the '50s and '60s through its laminated maple construction, featuring vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches that honour the classic aesthetic. The innovative trestle block bracing system reduces unwanted feedback while increasing rigidity and contact between the body's top and back, resulting in faster attack, enhanced focus, and improved sustain.
At the heart of this instrument are the all-new FT-5E Filter'Tron™ pickups, which produce huge full-bodied punch with that signature Gretsch chime, clarity and note definition. The versatile control layout includes master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and three-position pickup toggle switch, giving players comprehensive tonal control. The Classic "C"-shaped maple neck provides comfortable playability, topped with a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard for smooth performance.
Premium appointments include oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, and a smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock that maintains authentic vintage proportions. The guitar features vintage-style open-back tuning machines, Graph Tech® NuBone® nut, and distinctive pearloid Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays. Completed with a secured Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece, this hollow-body guitar represents your next step into the Gretsch family.
