Gretsch G5220 Electromatic Jet BT Deep Cherry Metallic

I would have given it 5 stars but 2 strings keep going out of tune so I need to take it to a luthier for a set-up

Excellent service and product.

really good guitar for the money. well made, sounds fantastic too. the only thing im not keen on but getting used to it is the fretboard is relatively flat, i have 2 gretsch electromatics and both are the same so must just be how they are, i am used to trats with a bit more of a curve. the guitar sounds absolutly fantastic with the filter trons....i think filter trons are now my fav pickup.

She is the best mistress a bloke could have, she plays and sounds great, even Ideal for a new guitarist like myself

Beautifully made and set up. Sounds great and plays well. Vol and tone knobs could be more progressive and G-string doesn't stay in tune as well as the rest.

The body and neck are good with a high quality finish. The pickups are very good (but needed adjusting out of the box). Action height is good, intonation almost spot on (needs a tweak). The hardware is as expected for L400, tuners could be more precise (but could be upgraded if desired) and bridge is acceptable (again can be upgraded). Fingerboard has some traces of glue from the binding, again this is typical of lower priced guitars from China, it has no effect on playability just aesthetically not as satisfactory. Fret ends are OK but frets needed a slight rub with emery paper to smooth off a bit (this would happen with use but nicer to be smooth from the outset)

Beautiful guitar for the money. I looked at similar guitars around the same price but the sound of the elecromatic pick ups put the Gretsch in front. The quality of the finish is spot on and it is a very playable guitar.

Great item! Great price! No wonder it was hard to source. I couldn?t find a store in 3 diff cities to try it before I bought it. Took a chance and it paid off. Excellent!
