Rated 5 out of 5

Beautiful guitar, plays great, sounds better

I'm far from an expert, but I am slowly building a guitar collection. This Gretsch played great right out of the box, with a very quick action, easy playablility. I paired it with a Vypyr VIP 3, and the sound is great, at least for the blues/classic rock I'm interested in. My only other electric is a MIM Strat, so this is obviously quite a bit different, but I love it so far.

Highly impressed

I am really impressed with this guitar for the price point. It plays and sounds great out of the box. Intonation and action is good. The nut needs a slight filling but nothing major. Paint and binding is flawless. Nothing to complain about

To Gretsch or not to Gretsch

This is my second Gretsch in just as many months. Long story short, I am on the fence with this one and gave it the benefit of the doubt for four stars instead of three. First, it's a very attractive guitar and it's sound/tone is great. My biggest issue is that its play-ability is not as friendly as my other Gretsch. I find my hands being all over the place and muddying the notes. It's not as fast playing of an instruments and the strings require more deliberate and committed pressing of the strings. I am not 100% convinced this is my issues versus the design of the guitar and not a problem I've ever had in the past and since I don't experience any of this with my other Gretsch, I'm inclined to be more critical of this instrument. Again overall, these are my experiences and it is a nice instrument, but it's just not as fluid as I ultimately like.

Bring the timeless elegance of the '50s and '60s to your music with the G5422TG Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Double-Cut Electric Guitar from Gretsch. This sophisticated instrument is not just a guitar, but a statement of style, boasting a Snowcrest White finish complemented by gold hardware for a truly stylish look.

This six-string, right-handed electric guitar is meticulously crafted with a laminated maple body, featuring vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches. Its double-cutaway design allows for effortless access to the higher frets, making it an ideal choice for musicians who love to play lead solos or need to reach higher notes.

The G5422TG Electromatic Classic is equipped with all-new trestle block bracing, a design innovation that reduces unwanted feedback while increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body. This results in a sound that has a faster attack, more focus, snap, and increased sustain.

The guitar's voice is further enhanced by the all-new FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups, delivering a full-bodied punch, classic chime, and enhanced presence, clarity, and note definition. The guitar's Classic "C"-shaped maple neck offers a comfortable playing feel, topped with a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard for improved playability and performance.

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

This guitar is more than an instrument; it's a piece of music history, echoing the classic Gretsch sound and style. Whether you're a professional musician or an aspiring artist, the G5422TG Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Double-Cut Electric Guitar is a timeless addition to your collection.
