Gretsch G5422G-12 Electromatic Classic Hollow-Body Double-Cut 12-String 'Walnut Stain' Electric Guitar

The Gretsch G5422G-12 Electromatic Classic Hollow-Body Double-Cut captures the unmistakable chime, shimmer and depth that define classic 12-string electric tone. Built with a fully hollow laminated maple body and vintage-inspired arches, this model delivers a rich, spacious voice with the clarity and articulation that make 12-string guitars so inspiring for rhythm work, arpeggios and jangly lead lines. Trestle block bracing enhances sustain and focus while helping control feedback, allowing the guitar’s natural resonance to shine through at both stage and studio volumes.

A pair of FT-5E Filter’Tron pickups power the G5422G-12, producing a bold, full-bodied sound with classic Gretsch sparkle, tight low end and excellent note separation across all twelve strings. A comfortable Classic “C”-shaped maple neck and 12 inch radius laurel fingerboard ensure smooth playability, while premium appointments such as pearloid Hump Block inlays, oversized bound F-holes, an Adjusto-Matic bridge and Gretsch G-cutout tailpiece complete the vintage aesthetic. This is ideal for rhythm players and jangle enthusiasts chasing a true workhorse 12-string that blends timeless Gretsch style with modern reliability.
