Gretsch Electromatic G5120 Hollow Body: Plays Great, But Careful With The Sound
Gretsch has a well-deserved reputation as a manufacturer of great electrics that were essential to the sound of early rock and roll. It's hard to imagine rockabilly without somebody playing a Gretsch, even if the most famous Gretsch player is a guy who played rockabilly nearly twenty years after... Read full review »
Gretsch enters the big leagues of guitar sales
Guitar Center/Musicians Friend is the Wal Mart of guitar stores, and whatever sales well here bodes well for the guitar maker who sells at this mega-chain. Of course, Gibson, Fender, Martin, Takamine, and Ibanez all do well here.
But did anybody know that Gretsch has the 5120 as a top...

Sweet And Soulful
I am a very experienced guitarist (former pro). Having owned the Gretsch G5120 for some months now, I can easily say that I just love it. I bought this guitar for only $500 at my local Guitar Center. As far as I am concerned, this instrument is an instant classic. The tone, feel and quality are... Read full review »
POOR SOUND. DO NOT BUY

2) 2-way...

Nice Looking, but Hollow on Sound
I liked it in the store wanting a hollow body. Gretsch has a great reputation with their lower end line in the
Electromatics are manufactured in Korea and China and soon maybe Indonesia. They produce quality guitars.
By solid I mean the Gretsch has a 1 ply top to say Corts 3 ply...

Very Impressive for the money!!!!!
The body is light and finely finished the coloring is brilliant for an off shore built unit, not blotchy like some others. The neck is thin, narrow, truely smooth running even for those with shorter fingers like me, and it has very easy access to higher frets. I played an orange... Read full review »
Blast from the past
Well the saying is “your guitar is only as good as the person who plays it". This guitar has the sound your looking for, I played the signature series and found there to be little difference. For the bang for the buck this guitar plays like butter. You get the twang for the jamming solos and... Read full review »
