The G5427T Electromatic limited-edition electric guitar is a no-nonsense classic hollowbody electric guitar, designed to deliver bold, dynamic and articulate Gretsch sound. The Electromatic features a laminated flame maple top and body with a trestle block bracing that helps reduce unwanted feedback. Coupled with FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups, this hollowbody’s voice explodes with huge, full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition.

The G5427T Electromatic limited-edition has a classic C-shaped maple neck offers a comfortable playing feel for improved performance. Get more from your tone with its ample sound-shaping tools, including a versatile upgraded control layout, including master volume with a treble-bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and a three-position tone switch. Additional features include a smaller, late-50s G6120 bound headstock, Graph Tech NuBone nut, pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic bridge and Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece. This limited-edition G5427T Electromatic comes in a cool black pearl metallic finish.

    I'm fairly new to guitars, and have only played a handful. This guitar is by far one of my favorites for both finger picking and rhythm strumming. And the black finish and gold looks sexy in every lighting.

    What an outstanding guitar. It has a great feel, wonderful sound and beautiful to look at when playing. It comes with a great set up out of the box ready to play. Everyone that sees it responds how beautiful it looks. The sound is great with the pickups and hollow body. A must for any collection. I added a black pick guard which I think adds to the beauty.

  • Classic Gretsch Hollow body sound.

    Picket it up yesterday and have been playing it most of the night. This is my 3rd Gretsch, I also have a G2627T center block and a G5222 Jet. Great build quality and the Filtertrons have that wonderful Gretsch chime.
