The Gretsch G5700 Electromatic Lap Steel Vintage White evokes the distinctive sounds of the Hawaiian guitar and proves to be an extremely versatile blues, country and western swing instrument. The six-string lap-played instrument features a slim mahogany body for superior playability and a 28-fret plastic fingerboard that provides the ideal overview of all registers with its triangles, circles, squares and diamonds decorated Inlays. For sound conversion, a Gretsch Single Coil is located just in front of the Chrome Bar Bridge, controlled in classic fashion by a Volume knob for volume control and a Tone knob for treble attenuation.
