Description
The G5622 Electromatic Center Block Double-Cut brings that unmistakable Gretsch character to a body built for volume. Under the hood is a maple double-cutaway body wrapped around a chambered spruce center block, a combination that keeps the guitar light on your shoulder while giving it real resonance and the kind of dynamic response that gets murky in a solid-body but stays articulate here even when the gain climbs. This one is finished in Olive Metallic and outfitted with a V-Stoptail rather than a Bigsby, for players who want that classic look and tone with a simpler, more direct feel underfoot.
Tone comes from a pair of Black Top Broad’Tron humbuckers, pickups voiced to deliver Gretsch’s signature chime up top while staying dynamic and punchy through the mids and lows. They clean up nicely for jangly rhythm work but push into a satisfying growl when you dig in or add drive.
The control layout gives you real flexibility on the fly: a master volume with a treble bleed circuit to keep your top end intact as you roll back, a master tone, individual volume controls for each pickup, and a three-way toggle to instantly reconfigure your sound. It’s a setup built for players who blend pickups, ride the volume knob, and want every tonal option within reach.
