The Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic Classic, here presented in Snowcrest White, is a thoroughly overhauled version of Gretsch’s hallowed double-cut hollow-body guitar with Bigsby. Now coming with a revised trestle block bracing system, this guitar has better attack, focus and sustain than ever before. The twin Filter’Tron pickups have also been revised, resulting in improved punch, chime and definition. To top it all off, playing comfort has been improved thanks to a “C” shape maple neck.

The Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic Classic Double Cut in Snowcrest White is now available from Merchant City Music, online and in our Glasgow store. Every guitar we sell receives a full professional setup before it goes out the door. We deliver fast to the UK, Europe and worldwide.

Gretsch G5422TG Electromatic Classic - Hollow Body Double-Cut in Snowcrest White

Get classic ‘50s & ‘60s -inspired Gretsch sound and style with the Electromatic Classic Hollow Body guitar, here presented in Snowcrest White. Crafted with essential Gretsch hollow-body sound, style and playability, these no-nonsense guitars are your next-step Gretsch.

The G5422TG Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Double-Cut features a laminated maple body with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, as well as new trestle block bracing to help reduce unwanted feedback. By increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, the trestle block design also results in the sound having a faster attack with more focus, snap, and increased sustain. Coupled with new FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups, this hollow build’s voice explodes with huge full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition.

A new Classic “C”-shaped maple neck offers a more comfortable playing feel for improved playability and performance, and is topped with a 12”-radius laurel fingerboard.

Alive and resonant, the G5422TG also features a versatile upgraded control layout including master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and three-position pickup toggle switch, oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock, vintage-style open-back tuning machines, Graph Tech NuBone nut, pearloid Hump Block inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic bridge and a Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece.
