The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Hollow or semi-hollow construction adding organic resonance and three-dimensional depth. Natural acoustic properties allowing enjoyable unplugged practice. Exceptional recording characteristics capturing richness solid-bodies can't match. A tonal versatility spanning jazz, blues, rock, indie, and beyond.
Roll the tone knob back to 6 and play through a tube amp at moderate gain - the natural resonance of the hollow body adds a woody warmth and depth to your tone that will transform how you experience guitar. That's the sweet spot.
A semi-hollow or hollow guitar delivers warmth and tonal complexity that solid-body instruments simply cannot match. You feel the resonance in your hands and hear it through the amp as a richer, more three-dimensional tone. From Freddie King's blues to Larry Carlton's fusion to Noel Gallagher's anthems, these instruments add soul to every note. It's the kind of guitar that makes you play more musically.

Gretsch - G5422TG Electromatic® Classic Hollow Body Double-Cut with Bigsby® and Gold Hardware, Laurel Fingerboard, Orange Stain - 2506217512
Get classic ‘50s & ‘60s -inspired Gretsch sound and style with the all-new Electromatic® Classic Hollow Body guitars. Crafted with essential Gretsch hollow-body sound, style and playability, these no-nonsense guitars are your next-step Gretsch. The G5422TG Electromatic® Classic Hollow Body Double-Cut with Bigsby® and Gold Hardware features a laminated maple body 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-5E 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, this G5422TG 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 bound headstock, vintage-style open-back standard tuning machines, Graph Tech® NuBone® nut, pearloid Hump Block inlays, secured Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and a Bigsby® B60 vibrato tailpiece. This resplendent instrument comes in standout Orange Stain, Snowcrest White and Walnut Stain finishes, complete with gold pickguard and gold hardware.
