Gretsch Guitars - G5427TFM Electromatic Hollow Body Single-Cut with Bigsby, Tiger Flame Maple, Laurel Fingerboard - Orange Stain

Description

No nonsense, Electromatic® Classic 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.

The G5427TFM Electromatic® Classic Hollow Body Single-Cut with Bigsby® features a laminated flame maple body with all-new trestle block bracing, which helps to reduce unwanted feedback. By increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, the new trestle block design also results in the sound having a faster attack with more focus, snap, and increased sustain. Coupled with all-new FT-5E Filter'Tron™ pickups, this hollow builds 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 and performance.

Alive and resonant, this G5427TFM also features a versatile upgraded control layout including master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and threeposition tone switch, oversized bound F-holes, aged multi-ply body binding, smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock, Graph Tech® NuBone® nut, pearloid Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece. It's the sound of honor itself - play proud.
