Meanwhile, the 12-string is a good ol’ fashioned G5422G-12 – a five-ply maple body and Filter’Tron pickups are among the specs – though flashes a sleek Single Barrel Burst finish. I put a set of Blacktop Filtertrons into a G5120 (hollow-body predecessor to the G5420), and they are fantastic. The double-cut offers Snowcrest White, Walnut Stain and Orange Stain, while the single-cut will be available in Orange Stain, Azure Metallic, Walnut Stain and Airline Silver.Ī left-hand version, without the Bigsby, is available for each. The sound of the Blacktops was one of the decisive factors in my finally getting a Gretsch, as they were pleasingly full and not inherently bright. In theory, it should increase the rigidity between the top and back, resulting in a harder attack, increased sustain and a more focused “snap”.Įlsewhere, each guitar also comes equipped with all-new FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups, and a choice of exotic colorways. The single-cut and double-cut Electromatics boast Gretsch’s newly designed trestle block bracing, which is housed within the laminated maple bodies of each guitar. ![]()
