Get classic '50s & '60s -inspired Gretsch sound and style with the all-new Electromatic Classic Hollow Body guitars, now with newly designed trestle block bracing, FT-5E filtertron pickups and C-shaped neck profiles, new features for the 2022 range!
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 build’s 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, and is topped with a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard.
Crafted with essential Gretsch hollow-body sound, style and playability, these no-nonsense guitars are your next-step Gretsch. These Electromatic Classic Hollow Body Single and Double cut guitars with Bigsby vibratos feature a laminated maple body with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, as well as all-new trestle block bracing to help reduce unwanted feedback.
Alive and resonant, these guitars features a versatile upgraded control layout including master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and three-position pickup toggle switch, oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, smaller late-'50s G6120 bound headstock, vintage-style open-back tuning machines, Graph Tech NuBone nut, pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic bridge and a Bigsby B60 vibrato tailpiece.

I’m always popping in here for gear demos of the guitars I wish I had. Great demo!
I love these videos, look forward to them all day every day!
I like your style and presentation and thanks for a good comparison of these two. I've been shopping for a hollow body electric for a few weeks now and a few G5420T models are at the top of my list. I've looked at that Godin and several of the models under $500 but keep coming back to the G5420T in either blue, black or orange. Weird thing is the first time I saw the orange I thought it was hideous but the color is growing on me and I think that is the one I'm going to buy.
Great quality videos guys. Keep up the good work :)
I work in a pawn shop, and we just got a Gretsch in store. I can say with great assurance that Gretsch’s are my favorite guitars!
The 5422 and 5420 never had centre blocks. I’m pretty sure they both always had some sort of bracing though.
can't go wrong with electromatic for the price man they are mega absolute gain machines
Insane demo🤘
A Grestch always is a Grestch, nothing can match this sound in any style !, is very good to all !!
I love this dude, it feels like they give him a spec sheets a guitar and a couple lines of blow then throw him in front of a camera😂
the only question I really have.... WHY IN GODS NAME HAVEN'T I BOUGHT A GRETSCH YET?!?
I just picked one up a few months ago-and got one of their Jim dandy parlor acoustics as well-between it and the sounds you can get these days from modelers, daws, and even cheap tube amps I’m legit awestruck at what you can get right now for under $1k, the price of my current setup back when I first started would’ve gotten me a first act amp and maybe a cheap pawn shop strat if I was lucky (which I was not, actually, during my first go round 🤣).
Plus imo they are some of the best looking guitars around right now period, so you can look as good as you sound; love what Gretsch is doing these days!
I do miss my old Les Paul dc special tho…
@@brettc6132 I love the Les Paul Special DC from around 2000 (1996-2002+), but rarely see them come up for sale. I agree, Gretsch is making great and affordable guitars!
Have you got one yet?
I bought a 5420 in 2017
I'm still Blowin away with it and the novelty has not worn off it at all
It's such a beautiful thing
Because you don't have your priorities in order,
simple as that. Give up the habit.
My son has a Country Gentleman, Gretsch acoustic, Silver Falcon and they all are great
I love my Rat Rod. Kind of digging the orange.
The blue (G5420T) is by far the best looking
Nice video! Love my G5422T in Walnut an excellent sounding guitar whatever style tune I play, great with all pedals and for me looks cool as fuck! Hopefully I’ll never have to get rid of mine, been close a few times with times being hard but it’s the last thing I’d get rid of. For the money they are a great guitar and can’t complain.
I recently got rid of my G2420T and a stagg a300. I have super regret but needs must, I've got my eye one a G5420T, wish me luck. The prices are rising.
Got some Fender acoustic guitars and a uke. Also bought a Gretsch Honey Dipper steel guitar a couple of years back and just love the quality and sound of that. Now I’m looking to buy an electric and thinking about a Tele or G5422TG as I love the sound of both. Leaning towards the 5422 though.
I have a 2022 Snowcrest White G5422GT Electromatic Classic and LOVE IT. >> Nerd Alert: Gretsch G5422 and G5420 Electromatics are hollowbody guitars that don't have a center block. The three new for 2022 Electromatic Classic models - G5420 (available in RH and LH versions), G5422 (available in RH and LH versions) and G5422G-12 (12-string) - are each outfitted with Gretsch's newly unveiled advanced trestle bracing system, which the company says provides improved sustain and a snappier attack. These three 2022 Electromatic Classic hollowbody guitars come with Gretsch's newly developed FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups.
Hi Kevin.....what do you think of the FT-5E p/ups?
@Kevin Barnard Thanks for the reply. I have too many guitars really but I think I will pull the trigger as my shop has a special offer going on at the moment and I only have 2 Gretches in my collection at the moment and one of them is an acoustic. Cheers.
@@redduketeleman - I love this guitar. The FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups sound great in all modes, from lush fingerstyle to jazzy to hard rocking. Also, the 2022 G5422GT Electromatic Classic feels better built than earlier years' G5422 guitars. Seems Gretsch upped their production quality a few notches in 2022.
They both look and sound so gorgeous.... Which one to pick....
I hear Gibson Les Paul a lot in this video
Not sure if it's the amp settings or the short scale neck
But I also hear Fender Jazzmaster
And other guitar models,
An extremely versatile guitar for sure.
I have a 2017 5420 electromatic
And it's absolutely amazing the sound is unreal
They say the 6420 sounds better but I just can't imagine how, you cannot improve perfection
How does the C neck feel compared to the U neck. I am a real fan of the U neck
Almost a Tennessee Rose!
The G5422TG inlays are the classic "hump block" inlays.
What about the Basses?
They should have halfmoon position markers.
I cant decide yet wish one to buy..
Would the g5422t be too bright and twangy through a fender champion 100 amp ?
❤❕🤘
Gretsch guitars are the best guitars.
Wasn't the previous 5422 model fully hollow? It was the 5622 that had a centre block.
Dead right - the Electromatic G5620 & G5622 are (& always have been) semi hollow with a centre block while the G5420 & G5422 are (& again, always have been) hollow bodies with a floating bridge. The 20 has a single cutaway & the 22 has a double cutaway. The same basic principle of model numbering also applies to the Streamliner series but they start with a 2. Now, can anyone explain to me the random collection of letters & numbers that Ibanez use for their guitars?
Perhaps you have misunderstood the concept here. The host isn’t interested in informing - he is interested in marketing the latest gear. That’s what he’s paid to do. Facts are not of any concern.
Daganvision :-)
I love the sound but I doesn't sound that good when I play them LOL
Same here!
Just hit freaking chords, it sounds great playing simple stuff too!
"What Guitar model do you prefer, G5422TG or G5420T?" my answer to this question, "yes".
Yes the 13 year old yes comment.
Need more tattoos with dog heads, peanuts, car lug nuts and Snickers bars to be an acceptable video about Gretsch guitars.
I want one but they aren’t even available right now 😡😡😡 (Alameda California)
As of June 20, 2022, there are a few of these at Guitar Center San Francisco. Also check Sweetwater.
6:45 BB Kingish sounded nothing like BB King by the way
And what do you think Wee Georgie Harrison would think of them...?
Beautiful guitar ! But the way that guitarstand sits on top of that speaker cabinet makes my stomach turn. 😮
Play freebird
The biggest difference is in the pickups. FT-5E vs BT Filter’Trons.
Ok, but what are the differences ?
@@huli8557 of that I am not sure. I’ve not heard a side by side comparison yet.
The trestle block is more substantial too. My earlier g5420 has a single post under the bridge. Oh well, looks like I need to buy a new Gretsch!
Rockabilly,No dääadäaa!ITS Not ESP 😂😂😂
The Guitar Sounds Fantastic;; The Player Is Questionable ???
Hmmm... I suppose you are light years better right?
I despise gold hardware.
Loves his overdrive doesn't he? Even the so called clean tones were breaking up. More work on the cleans needed I think.
Made in China...hard pass.
