Gretsch introduce new single-cutaway G5620T-CB Electromatic® Center-Block – featuring That Great Gretsch Sound™ with the “center-block advantage.” The interior solid spruce center block running the length of the guitar’s 1 ¾”-deep thinline-style body makes for a lively “high gain-friendly” tone and delivers greater control over the kind of feedback players want…
The new Center-Block series join three previously released guitars (launched in Jan. 2013) targeted at guitarists looking for an alternative instrument that combines the infamous Gretsch aesthetic, increased sustain and reduced feedback, even at high volumes.
The new dual-coil Super HiLo’Tron™ neck pickup is voiced to produce a clean, high-end sparkle with robust low-end, low-noise performance. Together with the “Black Top” Filter’Tron™ bridge pickup, it’s a potent tonal combination.
