Dripping with vibe!
Sporting five watts, two tubes, and two inputs, the G5222 Electromatic is billed as having "tone with soul." The G5222's low output is perfect for recording as well as small-scale performances and jam sessions. Not only does this compact blonde wonder have tons of spank and sparkle, it's got a mean growl when you open her up. It's got the whole Gretsch vibe working for it, too. If you've been looking for an amp that's small on size but big on mojo, the G5222 Electromatic might just be what you were looking for.

Gretsch G5222 Electromatic at a Glance:
  • Low wattage
  • Vintage vibe

Low wattage
It's no big secret that small guitar amps are often used in the studio for huge tones. Pushing just 5 watts, the G5222 is perfect for any situation where a tone of volume isn't needed, but the tone needs to be perfect. Strum gently and you get warm, round chords. Push harder and the G5222 gets mean, with tones that are ripe for searing riffs. All this tube sweetness is made possible by a 12AX7 in the preamp and a 6V6 in the power amp.

Vintage vibe
Wrapped in a blonde skin with a leather strap handle, the G5222 certainly looks like a tube-powered jewel from the '50s. The retro-script emblems on the amp further add to the vibe. And best of all, it's a Gretsch, and nothing says classic like Gretsch!
