No-nonsense Electromatic hollow-body guitars deliver pure, powerful Gretsch tone with unmistakable character. They’re your next-step Gretsch — bold, dynamic, and articulate — crafted with the essential sound, style, and playability that define the brand.
Lively and resonant, the G5420T features a fully hollow-body construction and an authentic Filter’Tron™ voice that explodes with huge punch and clear, commanding presence. Like all Electromatic models, it delivers the fearless, electrifying authenticity that has made Gretsch synonymous with rock ’n’ roll from the very beginning. It’s a sound with heritage — play proud.
Premium appointments include dual Black Top Filter’Tron humbuckers, upgraded controls with a master volume treble bleed circuit, oversized bound F-holes, aged multi-ply body binding, a smaller late-’50s G6120-style bound headstock, a Graph Tech® NuBone™ nut, pearloid Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, and a Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece.
