Classic FT-5E Filter’Tron humbucking pickups
First designed in 1957, Gretsch Filter'Tron pickups have adorned some of the company's finest guitars ever since — classic Gretsch tone just can't be beat! The G5422GLH Electromatic hollowbody features FT-5E Filter'Tron pickups. These stellar humbuckers capture incredible output and sustain devoid of hum and crackle, a big reason why they are quickly becoming favorites among Sweetwater guitarists.
Exceptionally flexible electronics
The Gretsch G5422GLH Electromatic allows you to pull off a lot of tonal tricks. Volume controls for each pickup help you create a perfect balance between warmth, bite, and brilliance when both pickups are engaged. The master tone control lets you fine-tune your sound once you have the pickups dialed in. And thanks to the master volume control, you can take your tube amp from clean to growling without changing the balance between your pickups. And of course you'll get sweet tone from the neck and bridge pickups individually.
Redesigned trestle-block bracing
Traditionally, trestle-braced guitars feature two U-shaped braces that run parallel from the neck joint to the bridge, simultaneously bracing the top and the back. This pattern enhances sustain and resonance but falls victim to feedback. Now, Gretsch unveils a new trestle block bracing design that enhances the performance of the fan-favorite trestle bracing pattern. Trestle-block bracing facilitates more contact between the top and back while adding extra stiffness to the traditional design. Trestle-block bracing flaunts a quick, snappy attack, more sustain, and greater resonance — all without the dreaded hollowbody feedback.
