Vintage-Inspired Hollowbody Design Resonates With 12-String Glory
The G5476G-12 revives the resonant 12-string tone and style of classic Gretsch hollowbody electrics. Its laminated maple body and maple trestle block bracing create a focused tone with reduced feedback so you can crank up the volume without sacrificing note clarity. The hollowbody construction produces airy, open sound with plenty of organic resonance. Combined with a slim, comfortable maple neck and 12-string headstock, the G5476G-12 nails the iconic Gretsch vibe. Its vintage-inspired design resonates with rich, jangly 12-string tone reminiscent of the 1960s rock n' roll invasion.
Comfortable C-Shaped Neck Improves Playability
The G5476G-12 features an all-new C-shaped maple neck for superior comfort and playability compared to previous Electromatic 12-strings. Its slimmer profile and smooth finish feel great in your hands. The C-shaped contour strikes a perfect balance between vintage and modern, encouraging effortless fretting and chord changes. It also sports a 12" radius laurel fingerboard with pearloid neo-classic thumbnail inlays for smooth playability across the entire fingerboard. The comfortable neck lets you play with confidence and articulation. Improved ergonomics make this 12-string a joy to play.
Powerful Filter'Tron Pickups Deliver Legendary 12-String Jangle
Equipped with a pair of powerful Filter'Tron FT-5E humbucking pickups, the G5476G-12 pumps out the lush, chimey 12-string tone Gretsch guitars are known for. The Filter'Trons capture each note with clarity and presence, translating your playing into rich, dynamic sound. Compared to previous Filter'Tron designs, the FT-5Es have more output and punch - perfect for cutting through the mix with shimmering 12-string jangle. Their open, airy voicing pairs perfectly with the hollowbody design. Dial in bright, jangly rhythms or switch to the neck pickup for smoother lead tones. The Filter'Trons deliver legendary Gretsch 12-string tone.
Upgraded Controls Offer Versatile Tone Shaping
For versatile tone shaping, the G5476G-12 includes upgraded controls like master volume with treble bleed circuit, master tone, individual Filter'Tron volume controls and a 3-way pickup toggle switch. The master volume maintains clarity and articulation, even at lower levels. Individual pickup volumes let you blend in just the right amount of each pickup's character. The 3-way switch provides quick access to bridge, both pickups or neck-only tones. Vintage-style knobs give it classic Gretsch style. The versatile controls let you dial in everything from sparkling 12-string jangle to smooth, mellow tones.
