Gretsch Guitars - 251-9500-539
Description
Alive and loud, Electromatic Center Block guitars are designed for that pure and powerful Gretsch sound at high volume. The G5628-P90 Electromatic Center Block P90 with V-Stoptail features a double-cutaway maple body with chambered spruce center block for dynamic resonance, high gain power and lightweight comfort.
The G5628-P90's sound is the perfect blend of brash and brawn with the chambered spruce center block driven to the limit by dual P90 pickups. The single-coil P90 Soap Bar pickups offer up a more transparent tone than a traditional humbucker, while retaining a thick midrange for a unique, muscular voice. Flexibly harness its sonic power with a versatile control layout consisting of a master volume control with treble bleed circuit, master tone, bridge and neck pickup volume controls and three-position pickup toggle switch.
Available in an exclusive Dark Cherry Metallic finish, the G5628-P90 also has aged white body binding with multi-ply purfling, cream pickguard and nickel hardware.
