Overview

A hollowbody guitar with punchy Filter'Tron clarity.

The Gretsch Guitars G5427TG Electromatic hollowbody single-cut with Bigsby limited edition electric guitar combines vintage styling with modern performance to deliver a versatile, dynamic instrument. Featuring a laminated maple body with trestle block bracing, this hollowbody design reduces unwanted feedback while maintaining the rich, resonant tone players expect from a Gretsch. The FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups bring punchy clarity and articulate note definition, making this guitar suitable for everything from rockabilly to jazz. Finished in a striking Midnight Sapphire with gold hardware and equipped with a Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece, this guitar is as visually stunning as it is sonically powerful.

Hollowbody Electric Guitar With Filter'Tron Pickups for Bold, Clear Tone

The G5427TG features FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups designed to deliver the classic Gretsch sound with modern articulation and clarity. These pickups produce a balanced tone with tight bass, chime-like treble, and scooped mids, making them suitable for a wide range of genres. Their feedback-resistant design ensures consistent performance even at higher gain levels. The three-way pickup selector allows you to toggle between the neck and bridge pickups or blend them for a fuller sound, giving you versatility for rhythm and lead playing.

This hollowbody electric guitar's laminated maple construction offers a resonant yet controlled tone. Trestle block bracing inside the body enhances sustain and reduces feedback, making it a reliable choice for live performances or studio sessions. The Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece adds expressive capabilities, allowing you to bend notes and chords smoothly without compromising tuning stability. The combination of these features gives the G5427TG a balanced voice that adapts to different playing styles.

The control layout on this guitar is built for precision sound shaping. A master volume with a treble-bleed circuit ensures you retain clarity and high-end response even at lower volumes. Individual volume knobs for the neck and bridge pickups let you fine-tune the blend, while the master tone knob adds further tonal variation. This flexible setup allows players to dial in anything from warm, mellow tones to bright, cutting leads with ease.

The maple neck has a classic C profile that provides a comfortable grip for extended playing sessions. The laurel fingerboard, adorned with pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, offers a smooth playing surface with medium-jumbo frets for effortless fretting and bending. With a shorter 24.6-inch scale length, chording and soloing feel natural, especially for players who prefer a slightly more compact neck layout. This design ensures playability without sacrificing performance.

Electromatic Hollowbody With Bigsby and Classic Gretsch Tone for Stage and Studio

The G5427TG is a strong choice for players looking to capture the iconic Gretsch tone while enjoying modern features and reliable construction. Its vintage-inspired design and bold sonic character make it suitable for live gigs, recording sessions, or home practice.
