If you're looking for a guitar that'll accommodate a wide range of genres and styles, then your search ends with the Gretsch G5655TG. Because it's been loaded with a pair of sensational Broad'Tron pickups that can handle whatever you throw at them. With their huge sound and distinctive punch, they're perfect for rock 'n' roll. But that's just beginning. They'll respond superbly well to any frequency, giving you booming lows, a full midrange, and sharp, defined highs. So you really have no limits on what you can play.
Legendary tremolo
The Bigsby tremolo. It's been on the scene for decades, on the guitars of some of music history's most iconic artists. The G5655TG's Bigsby B70 will give you that classic, warbling tremolo effect that's perfect for giving a unique edge to your lead playing. And that's not to mention that it looks awesome, too. Finished in gleaming gold, it adds an extra touch of vintage class to this already regal guitar.
Clarity that's better than ever
It goes without saying: clarity is important. Without good sound quality, it doesn't matter if you're Jimmy Page - your playing won't sound right. The G5655TG Electromatic delivers fidelity on another level to anything you've ever experienced before. Starting with the Broad'Tron pickups, they're designed to eliminate any hum and noise interference that might affect your signal.
But clarity is enhanced far beyond just the pickups. Gretsch have fitted the G5655TG with a high-gain spruce centreblock. Semi-hollow guitars are often associated with dodgy audio quality when the volume is up high. But this centreblock prevents the reverberations around the guitar's body from ruining your signal, meaning you can play at maximum output and still enjoy crystal-clear clarity. This is your sound - purer than ever.
