Product information

General

The Gretsch G5420T Electromatic Classic Hollowbody gives you that sweet, fresh Gretsch sound as well as the brightness and excellent resonance shaped by a special trestle-block bracing system. A GraphTech NuBone nut and Adjustomatic bridge also help to balance the foundation sound, offering dependable tuning stability while the Classic C-profile neck and the 22 medium jumbo frets of the 12-inch-radiussed fretboard take care of high-level playing comfort. Meanwhile, authentic details such as the small '50s G6120 headstock, the vintage-style open-back tuners and plexi scratch-plate turn the G5420T into a real eye-catcher.

The G5420T: FT-5E Filter'Tron and Bigsby B60 Vibrato

Two potent Filter'tron pickups take care of the amplified sound, where the warmth of a humbucker gets combined with the sparkle of a single-coil pickup and a set of trusty controls, including a special volume pot furnished with a treble bleed function so the trebles retain prominence, even at lower volume levels. Last but not least, and to support tasteful pitch bends, Gretsch have kitted out this gorgeous semi-acoustic hollowbody guitar with a classic Bigsby B60 Vibrato tailpiece.

Gretsch G5420T Electromatic Classic Hollowbody SC Bigsby Orange Stain Semi-Acoustic Guitar

Very well packed and double boxed. Instrument Even better than I expected for for a sub £1k guitar. Practically flawless finish throughout. Looks gorgeous in orange. Well set up out of the box, good action. Heavier than I expected. My first Bigsby trem so I didn't know what to expect but it looks great and works well within its limitations. Very distinctive sound compared to my (equally inexpensive ) LP, Strat and 330 clones). Very pleased
