Gretsch Electromatic Hollow Body Bass Guitar

Few best bass guitars have been able to capture the vintage classic hollow body look and tone of the pricey collectors bass guitars that made the Hollow Body Long Scale Bass Guitar famous.

The sounds of the early years of rock and roll, country music and rockabilly music are all personified with this beautiful guitar.  Not only did Gretsch succeed with making the Gretsch Electromatic Hollow Body Bass Guitar look authentic, but the choice they made in using the Black Top Filter Tron Bass pickups, really helped make this bass guitar pack a punch that some hollow body bass guitars can’t seem to get right.

The thump and low end of the Gretsch Electromatic Hollow Body Bass guitar is impressive and helps this bass guitar stand toe to toe with almost any other bass guitar, making it appropriate for almost any style of music.

The beauty of this bass is not only in it’s beautiful design, but also in the long scale neck outfitted on the Gretsch G5440LS Hollow Body electric bass guitar.  This bass guitar is about as close in tone as you can get to the traditional double bass and much of that is thanks to the sustain and resonance you get from the long scale neck design.  Short of buying a full sized double bass, the Gretsch G5440LS Hollow body electric bass guitar packs a punch rivaled by few other bass guitars.
