No nonsense, Electromatic hollow-body guitars are the perfect real, pure and powerful Gretsch instruments. They're your next-step Gretsch-bold, dynamic and articulate, and crafted with essential Gretsch sound, style and playability.

Inspired by the 1959 G6120, the G5420TG Electromatic Hollow Body Single-Cut with Bigsby and Gold Hardware in Vintage Orange with both chrome and gold hardware has a fully hollow build with a true Filter'Tron voice that explodes with huge punch and clear, strong presence. Alive and resonant, it delivers the fearless and electrifying authenticity that has set Gretsch apart as the quintessential rock 'n' roll guitars from the very beginning.

The Gretsch G5420TG-59 in Vintage Orange is a Long & McQuade Exclusive!

Awesome guitar for rockabilly style and much more! Feels just like a g6120 Chet Atkins. Looks stunning with the wood grain through the stain and golden hardware! Very happy with this instrument, definitely my favorite in my collection!

I got this guitar in February 2017; the Cadillac Green colour was, I believe, a limited edition, available only in 2016. I'm afraid that I've been ignoring my other guitars for the last four years, since I got this one. It has a true Gretsch sound. I got it when it was on a special sale price, so it was amazing value for the money.

The acoustic sustain with single notes and chords on these with the .11's it comes with is a thing of true beauty. And the pickups are pristine sounding. This guitar covers so much musical ground it's ridiculous.

I'd been looking at this for a while and picked it on June 8, 2020. This guitar is so well put together with intonation set right out of the box, easy to play, great tone and drop-dead looks to boot. SHE'S MY BABY NOW!

That Great Gretsch Sound! 2 of 2 customers found this review helpful

I bought this guitar from the Victoria store around a year ago, and I've scarcely put it down since. Plays like a dream, great action and setup out of the case, and apart from a few small modifications to the Bigsby it was good to go from day one. The funky mismatched gold and silver hardware and the double-bound wood-grain finish please the eye, and of course it has that Great Gretsch Sound to please the ear every time you pluck a string. I strung mine up with flatwound D'Addario Chromes, and it now has a lovely mellow twang that I can't get enough of.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
