General

The Gretsch G5422TDC offers you all the familiar Gretsch characteristics: an exceptionally stylish look, combined with a typically twangy sound. This transparent red hollow-body semi-acoustic guitar from the popular Electromatic series is equipped Black Top Filter'Tron pickups, which provide you with a full and sparkling sound and a considerable output. The glossy body of the guitar is fitted with chrome-plated hardware, elegant f-shaped sound holes and a double cutaway, providing easy access to the highest frets.

The looks of the G5422TDC

The Gretsch G5422-TDC features a maple neck and a rosewood fingerboard with distinctive mother-of-pearl position markers. The Transparent Red body, sound holes and neck are fitted with neat bindings, and the guitar features a stylish Bigsby tailpiece with tremolo, reminiscent of those you can find on vintage jazz guitars. An Adjusto-Matic bridge enables you to accurately determine the intonation of the instrument, and the timbre can be controlled by means of a 3-way pickup switch and volume and tone knobs.

Gretsch Introduces the Vintage Select and Player Editions

Friday 29 January 2016

Gretsch fans can roughly be divided into two groups. On the one hand you have the purists who think the specifications from the 1950s and 1960s - the Gretsch heydays - are beyond dispute. On the other hand, you have the more practically minded guitarists who like to make modifications to their instruments. Luckily, both camps are being catered to with Gretsch's new series: the Vintage Select Editions and the Players Editions. Go for a modern classic like the G6118T-SGR or travel back in time to 1962 with the Gretsch G6119T-62GE!
