Classic '50s and '60s Gretsch sound and style come forward in the Electromatic Classic Hollow Body line. Crafted with essential Gretsch hollow-body tone, looks and playability, these are no-nonsense guitars built to be your next-step Gretsch.

The G5420T Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Single-Cut with Bigsby features a laminated maple body with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, along with all-new trestle block bracing that helps reduce unwanted feedback. By increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, the trestle block design also delivers a faster attack with more focus, snap and increased sustain. Paired with all-new FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups, this hollow build's voice explodes with huge full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition.

An all-new Classic "C"-shaped maple neck offers a more comfortable playing feel for improved playability, topped with a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard, 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays. A Graph Tech NuBone nut works alongside the Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece and vintage-style open-back tuners.

Alive and resonant, the G5420T also carries a versatile upgraded control layout — master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volumes and a three-position toggle — plus oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, the smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock, a secured Adjusto-Matic bridge and nickel hardware. It's the sound of honor itself — play proud.

Tamed Feedback, Tighter Response

The all-new trestle block bracing increases rigidity and contact between the top and back, which helps reduce unwanted feedback at stage volume. It also gives the guitar a faster attack with more focus, snap and increased sustain.

Authentic '50s And '60s Voice

FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups deliver huge full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition. It's the essential Gretsch hollow-body sound without the vintage price tag.

Comfortable, Modern Playability

The all-new Classic "C" maple neck and 12"-radius laurel fingerboard make long sets and fast lines easier on the hand. Medium jumbo frets and a Graph Tech NuBone nut round out the feel.

Laminated Maple Hollow Body

Arched laminated maple top and back with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, finished in gloss at a 2.75" body depth.

Trestle Block Bracing

All-new trestle block bracing bonds the top and back for added rigidity, reduced feedback and a snappier, more sustaining response.

FT-5E Filter'Tron Pickups

A matched pair of all-new FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups in the neck and bridge positions, finished in nickel.

Upgraded Control Layout

Individual neck and bridge pickup volumes, master tone and a master volume with treble bleed circuit that keeps highs clear as you roll back. A three-position toggle selects bridge, both or neck.

Bigsby B60 Vibrato

The Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece works with a secured Adjusto-Matic bridge on a laurel base for classic shimmer and wobble.

Classic "C" Set Maple Neck

Glued-in maple neck with a gloss finish, white binding and a 24.6" scale length.
