Gretsch G5700 Electromatic Lap Steel Tobacco Sunburst

The Gretsch G5700 Electromatic Lap Steel in Tobacco Sunburst captures the essence of the electric Hawaiian guitar, delivering the rich, unmistakable tones lap steel players are after. A sleek Tobacco Sunburst gloss finish gives it timeless elegance, whether played by a seasoned lap steel player or someone picking up the style for the first time.

A solid mahogany slab body provides a resonant, warm tone well suited to slide playing, and a chrome-covered single-coil pickup delivers a dynamic, expressive sound that cuts through any mix. A chrome-plated string-through-body bridge and silver plastic deco control plate combine functionality with vintage-inspired styling, while fingerboard position markers in circles, triangles, squares and diamonds add visual character. Ideal for players who want an authentic Hawaiian slide tone in a well-built, affordable instrument.
