Gretsch Guitars

collapse expand iconDescription

The G5422DC-12 Electromatic 12-String Hollowbody Guitar sparkles with the lushly full and distinctively chiming sound that only comes from doubling the number of strings on a fine Gretsch guitar. Further, it features two dynamic "Black Top" Filter'Tron pickups, which endow the latest generation of Electromatic hollow-body models with an electrifying voice and identity.

Full and balanced 12-string tone emanates from its bound double-cutaway hollowbody, which features sound-post bracing and elegant bound f holes. Other features include a maple neck, bound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and hump-block pearloid inlays, silver plexi pickguard, three-position pickup switch, classic "G" arrow control knobs, rosewood-based Adjusto-Matic bridge and "G" Cutout Tailpiece, vintage-style open-back tuners and chrome hardware.

Case sold separately.
