In recent years, with the Korean import tools Gretsch high quality, including the famous Gretsch G5122 launched. This guitar offers a variety of "Twang" for the dollar. So if you feel in a guitar with a little 'different than, say, a Gibson Les Paul and Fender Stratocaster is probably also would like to look at the G5122. What do you offer?
G5122 Hollowbody sports a top laminate maple body and neck. A 22-fret rosewoodKeyboard is standard, as the medium jumbo frets. The scale is 24.56 "with a nut width of 1-11/16" (43mm). The guitar is also available with chrome including two dual-coil humbucker pickups equipped.
The hardware definitely adds to the original style of guitar. The G5122 offers G-Arrow Knobs, Standard Strap Buttons Gretsch, chrome hardware and vintage-style tuners. A Bigsby B60 Vibrato (hey, this is a Gretsch, after all, right?) And a Adjust Matic bridge complete the picture.
We triedthe G5122 Dr. Z MAZ-18 NO combo and a Fender Twin Reverb. With two amplifiers, the Gretsch Twang just oozed vintage. We could not help but play some of our favorite Beatles, Chet Atkins and Brian Setzer licks. The stock pickups have a good job on the translation, of course, a great guitar sound.
The clean sounds were great, clear and powerful. When we cranked the amp a bit ', was significantly enough to cut through a mix. This is certainly not a shredderAx, do not buy this if you have a Dragonforce Tribute Band. But if you're into classic rock, blues, jazz or country, you can certainly find a use for the G5122.
Few guitars are perfect, but we had a niggles here and there. The tuner, but keep the good mood, nor cheap and hated to be improved. The causeway was feeling a little 'strange, but had no effect on the pitch.
We were very pleased with the overall measure and finish very satisfied. The guitar has aUnique Walnut Stain finish that also contributes to the elegant, nostalgic atmosphere. Honestly, you make the guitar look much more expensive than it really is. We are also pleased with the action. We had no problems with work or lead or rhythm. We had only minor adjustments to the bridge and truss rod make things work as we wanted.
It's hard not to love Gretsch G5122. It's the playability, the looks, sounds, and for you to set it apart from the crowd, especially with thebeautiful finish. E 'bright enough to play for three hours together and not break your back. Above all, the price (about $ 700 new) is accessible.
