Full Description

Powerful, clear tone

The G5220 Electromatic Jet BT features Black Top Broad'Tron pickups that deliver a thick, aggressive tone with outstanding clarity. These pickups are designed to drive the chambered mahogany body and maple top, producing a powerful sound suitable for both overdrive and clean tones. The result is a versatile guitar that can handle various musical styles with ease.

Rich, balanced sound

The single-cut chambered mahogany body with a maple top provides a strong sonic profile, delivering rich mids and balanced highs. This combination accentuates big lows and shimmering highs, creating a well-rounded sound. The chambered design enhances the guitar's resonance and sustain, making it ideal for both live performances and studio recordings.

Effortless access and playability

The lower set mahogany neck and 12-inch radius laurel fingerboard offer comfortable, smooth playability. The neck design allows for easy access to higher frets, making it perfect for both rhythm and lead playing. The medium jumbo frets and Big Block inlays add to the guitar's playability and vintage-inspired aesthetic.

Total tonal control

The G5220 Electromatic Jet BT provides extensive tonal control with its master volume featuring a treble bleed circuit, master tone, and individual pickup volume controls. This setup allows you to fine-tune your sound with precision. The V-Stoptail and anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge add stability and sustain, ensuring your guitar stays in tune and performs reliably in any setting.
