G5420LH Electromatic is, as its name says, an Electromatic Collection guitar. It was introduced in mid-2016, along with four other models (G5422TG, G5422G-12, G5422T and G5420T). Just like its teammates, G5420LH comes in with a price tag well above the $1,000 mark ($1,149, to be exact). Some of the main features of this upscale Electromatic single-cut are 24-3/5" scale (standard feature, found on all five newly introduced models), 22-fret fingerboard, glued in neck, vintage "f" holes and standard electronics and hardware options. Orange Stain and Black options make up the color palette. G5420LH Electromatic has a laminated body, made of five-ply maple (back, sides, top are made of the same material). The neck is, on the other side, made of solid maple. The body is, of course, completely hollow and has carved back and top. The neck sports a regular "U" profile in the back and a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard on top. Standard issue Filter`Tron pickups deliver a strong, punchy tone and feature the standard controls unit. Other major features include an Adjust-o-Matic bridge (with trapezoid tailpiece) and open-geared vintage tuning machines.
