The GRETSCH G5420T-140 140th ANNIVERSARY ELECTROMATIC DOUBLE PLATINUM features a laminated maple body and Adirondack spruce top with vintage-inspired perimeters and refined arches, as well as all-new trestle block bracing to help reduce unwanted feedback. By increasing rigidity and contact between the top and back of the body, the new trestle block design also results in the sound having a faster attack with more focus, snap, and increased sustain. Coupled with all-new FT-67 Filter'Tron pickups, this hollow build's voice explodes with huge full-bodied punch, classic chime and enhanced presence, clarity and note definition.

An all-new Classic "C"-shaped maple neck offers a more comfortable playing feel for improved playability and performance, and is topped with a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard. 

Alive and resonant, the GRETSCH G5420T-140 140th ANNIVERSARY ELECTROMATIC DOUBLE PLATINUM also features a versatile upgraded control layout including master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual pickup volume controls and three-position pickup toggle switch, oversized bound F-holes, multi-ply body binding, smaller late-'50s G6120 headstock, vintage-style open-back tuning machines, Graph Tech NuBone nut, pearloid Neo-Classic™ thumbnail inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and a Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece.

It's the sound of honor itself - play proud.
