Overview

Throwback hollowbbody electric with vintage style and classic tone.

The Gretsch G5420T Electromatic embodies the brand's hollowbody legacy, blending vintage style with modern rock attitude. Its elegant arched maple top, back and sides encase two punchy Filter'Tron humbuckers, unleashing the full-bodied tone Gretsch is revered for. With a comfortable bound maple neck and smooth laurel fingerboard, the G5420T plays like a dream. Take advantage of its 22 medium-jumbo frets to execute soulful bends with ease. And the Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece adds expressive, shimmering vibrato to your sound.

Vintage-Inspired Hollowbody Design With Elegant Arched Maple Top and Sides

The G5420T's classically contoured laminated maple body nods to Gretsch's most cherished vintage models. Binding along the top and back perimeter lends an elegant touch, accentuating the guitar's graceful lines. And beneath the gleaming Azure Metallic finish, trestle bracing improves resonance and sustain. The result is a lively, feedback-resistant voice with tight lows and singing highs.

Dual Filter'Tron Humbuckers for Rich, Full Tones With Chime and Presence

Gretsch outfits the G5420T with a pair of punchy Filter'Tron humbuckers, which pump out the brand's coveted mix of twang, depth and presence. From snappy country licks to howling classic rock leads, the G5420T's pickups have you covered. Their brighter top end cuts through a mix while the lows remain tight and focused. Let your playing shine with the classic Gretsch sound.

Adjusto-matic Bridge with Bigsby B60 Vibrato Tailpiece for Rocking Vibrato Effects

Anchored by an Adjusto-matic bridge, the G5420T sings with resonance and sustain. For expressive, warbling vibrato, Gretsch outfits it with a Bigsby B60 tailpiece. Give the bar a wiggle to add mesmerizing movement to your notes and chords. Between its singing sustain and stellar vibrato system, the G5420T makes it easy to emulate the playing styles of Gretsch greats like Chet Atkins, Eddie Cochran and Brian Setzer.

Bound Maple Neck with Comfortable C Profile for Smooth Playability

The G5420T's slick maple neck feels natural and familiar. Its comfortable C profile fills the hand effortlessly while the 12" radius laurel fingerboard beckons flashy lead work. Jumbo frets make bends a breeze while Graphtech nut and vintage-style tuners keep your guitar in tune through marathon practice sessions and high-energy gigs. Play your heart out on the G5420T Electromatic.
