Gretsch Guitars - 251-4813-506

Description

The G5422DC-12 Electromatic Hollow Body 12-String 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 new Black Top Filter'Tron pickups, which endow the latest generation of Electromatic hollow-body models with an electrifying new voice and identity.

Full and balanced 12-string tone emanates from its bound double-cutaway hollow body, 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. Available in Black and Sunburst.
