Gretsch G5622 Electromatic Center Block Double-Cut V-Stoptail Electric Guitar Olive Metallic

G5622 Center Block Double-Cut

The Gretsch G5622 Electromatic Center Block Double-Cut is a new solid-body electric guitar built for powerful performances at high volume. Its double-cutaway maple body houses a chambered spruce center block that provides dynamic resonance and lightweight comfort. A lower-set maple neck allows effortless access across the 12-inch-radius laurel fingerboard fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets. Dual Black Top Broad'Tron humbucking pickups deliver chiming highs and articulate tone for enhanced sonic punch.

Chambered Spruce Block Resonance

The chambered spruce center block reduces body mass while maintaining structural rigidity for sustained high-gain output. This construction manages feedback effectively during loud concerts or long jam sessions. The anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and Graph Tech NuBone nut stabilise tuning and intonation under heavy playing dynamics. A master volume control with treble bleed circuit preserves high-frequency clarity when rolling back gain levels.

Upgrade From Hollow-Body Models

Players moving from fully hollow archtops gain feedback resistance and centre-block sustain without losing Gretsch character. The versatile control layout — master volume, master tone, individual pickup volumes and a three-way toggle — replaces simpler switching schemes for precise sound shaping. Guitarists needing a lightweight double-cutaway for extended stage sets will appreciate the reduced shoulder strain. Buyers requiring acoustic projection without amplification should consider other body styles.
