Gretsch has taken their popular electromatic series and updated them with new and improved pickups, inlays, and finishes. The Gretsch Electromatic 5420T shows off an Aspen Green finish!
Introduced in early 2012, the 542x line replaces the 512x series. Structurally similar, new finishes and hardware are used. Key additions are the bound F-holes, 1950’s style hump-block position markers, and the black-top Filter’Tron pickups. These are great guitars. |
