General

Are you looking for a Gretsch guitar with a vintage look that is also suited for heavier-style playing? This black G5622T-CB Electromatic electric guitar has a classic design and features a solid spruce 'center block' that runs along the length of its hollow body and reduces unwanted feedback when you're using high-gain distortion. As an additional benefit, it provides the guitar with more tone and increases its sustain. The G5622T features a 44mm thinline body with two cutaways and 1960s-style cat's eye sound holes, as well as three Gretsch Super HiLo'Tron low-noise humbucker pickups that produce a crystal-clear sound with a rugged low-end.

Gretsch G5622T-CB Electromatic: body, neck and hardware

The body of the Gretsch G5622T-CB is made of high-grade 5-ply maple and has an arched top and back. The neck of the guitar is also made of maple and features a rosewood fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets, a 12.5-inch radius and Neo-Classic Thumbnail position markers. The G5622T-CB is equipped with a volume knob for each pickup, master volume and master tone controls and a three-way pickup switch. A two-way switch enables you to turn the middle pickup on or off. The Adjusto-Matic bridge of the guitar is accompanied by a Bigsby-licensed B70 tailpiece for subtle vibrato effects. Additionally, the guitar is fitted with a set of solid Grover kidney-shaped tuners, five 'G-arrow' knobs and a black pickguard adorned with a white Gretsch logo.

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!
