Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

What a steal! We were blown away by the sound, feel, and quality this thinline has to offer even compared to much pricier models! The chambered center block design ensures it sounds clear and loud while the double cutaway gives you access to the upper range of the neck. This is one versatile guitar and at this price point, its proving hard for any of us to pass it up!

Alive and loud, Electromatic® Center Block guitars are designed for that pure and powerful Gretsch sound at high volume. The G5622 Electromatic® Center Block Double-Cut with V-Stoptail features a double-cutaway maple body with chambered spruce center block for dynamic resonance, high gain power and lightweight comfort.

Dual Black Top Broad’Tron™ humbucking pickups deliver chiming highs with dynamic and articulate tone for enhanced sonic punch.
