Pickups that do it all

No one should be limited in their music. So get yourself a guitar that'll always keep your options open. The G2420T has been loaded with a pair of pickups that strive to give you the most complete performance possible. Specially designed Broad'Tron BT-2S humbuckers deliver wide-ranging tone that'll fit any style. So scintillating highs, bellowing lows, and everything in between is available at your fingertips.

And boy do they pack a punch. They're high output, meaning they perform supremely well at loud volumes - making them ideal for performance. Add in their ability to eliminate noise interference and ensure everything you play sounds pure and exactly as you intend, and you've got a complete electronics package that gives you everything.

Big sound

The pickups are already loud. But Gretsch take it to the next level. The G2420T's hollow body construction adds a booming natural resonance to your playing to really ensure every note gets heard. Enlarged "F"-shaped sound holes allow for greater acoustic projection in your playing, ensuring your music always sounds fantastically full. Never let your audience miss a chord.

An effortless playing experience

Designed for perfect playability. The G2420T has been optimised in every way to ensure it feels completely natural in your hands. A specially designed thin "U"-shaped neck delivers maximum comfort at all points along the guitar's scale. So cramp during lengthy playing sessions becomes a thing of the past. A slick gloss urethane finish adds a smooth, super-fast playing action - ideal for speedy soloing. And you'll enjoy uninhibited access to the very top of the fretboard thanks to a cutaway body shape. Play with total ease.

Iconic tremolo

The Bigsby. It's been around for decades. This legendary, warbling tremolo tailpiece has been a staple in guitar music since its invention. And for good reason - it's the first ever successful whammy bar. The G2420T's Bigsby creates distinctive, defined tremolo that only it can provide. That's why it's got an illustrious list of fans ranging from Chet Atkins to Keith Richards, Jack White and beyond. Experiment with the very best of a classic effect.
