Gretsch G5420TG Electromatic® Hollow Body Electric Guitar – White

Description

Construction

The Gretsch G5420TG features an all-Maple construction, ensuring an incredibly bright and vibrant sound that’ll sing in a band mix. With its large hollowbody design, this guitar projects plenty of volume even when unplugged, which is translated beautifully through an amplifier too.

The Maple neck has a comfortable standard “U” profile that offers excellent support for your thumb when fretting chords, with the elegant Rosewood fretboard feeling silky smooth under the fingers.

Hardware & Electronics

Many Gretsch guitars feature traditional Bigsby tremolos, and the G5420TG Electromatic is no exception. Fitted with a B60 tailpiece, this tremolo has a gloriously smooth action that’ll make gentle warbles sound natural and precise.

At the other end of the instrument, you’ll find a high-quality GraphTech NuBone nut. This particular nut is made of a synthetic material that closely resembles bone not just aesthetically, but also tonally. Ensuring optimal sustain and resonance, its low-friction material will allow the strings to glide smoothly over it when using the Bigsby, so that they return to pitch in the resting position.

That signature Gretsch tone is delivered flawlessly via the G5420TG Black Top Filter’Tron pickups. With clear and defined highs, a warm yet sizzling mid-range and focused lows, these pickups sing with both clean and overdriven settings.

Here’s what Gretsch says about the G5420TG Limited Edition:

No nonsense, Electromatic hollow-body guitars are the perfect real, pure and powerful Gretsch instruments. They’re your next-step Gretsch—bold, dynamic and articulate, and crafted with essential Gretsch sound, style and playability.

Alive and resonant, the G5420TG has fully hollow build with a true Filter’Tron™ voice that explodes with huge punch and clear, strong presence. Like all Electromatic guitars, it delivers the fearless and electrifying authenticity that has set Gretsch apart as the quintessential rock ‘n’ roll guitars from the very beginning. It’s the sound of honor itself—play proud.
