Gretsch G5222 Electromatic Review (5 Mins of Malcolm Young Riffs!) 

You’re an awesome Malcolm Rhythm Guitar Guy. Loved video. I have this very guitar arriving tomorrow…

Fantastic playing and tone! Thank you for uploading!

I love the tone of these! They’re basically Telecasters on steroids. I imagine a Tele with filtertrons wouldn’t sound too much different.

Great playing and great demo!

Great palying! My Gretsch G5222 is on it's way to me and can't wait for it to get here.

this tone sounds almost 1 to 1 like that of Malcolm at Donnington. Very well done!

Great playing

Nice guitar, you’re a gifted guitarist.

Brilliant 👍

good job mate

Thanks !

very good

I have just ordered one of these amazing guitars in the same colour (Malcolm Young colour) . £429 from Guitarguitar. Can't wait to get my mitts on this instrument. I'll be hooking it up to a Marshall 30 watt MG30DFX ( not the best I know) but it should sound pretty good. I'm also looking to get it restrung with a wound G, what brand and gauge string would you recommend please, also would I have to send the guitar to a luthier to have the nut accomodate the strings? Many thanks in advance. Some awesome Malcolm stuff you did there, big hats off to you mate, great job 👍👍👍☮☮☮🤘🤘🤘

Hi There, i purchased the walnut version and wanted to ask if it is normal that the guitar hums when i turn (one or all ) volume pots to 0 position. I do not touch strings or bridge or the pots. When I touch them, the humming stops. Please notice: pots are turned to 0.

Great sound! I buy this guitar for Christmas and I can't wait. I have a Marshall Origin 20C amplifier, do you think it will be a good lot for Malcolm's sound? It is my greatest goal to bring my guitar sound closer to his. What amplifier settings do you prefer?

What are the tuners you used? Were they a one for one replacement or did you have to ream the holes to make them fit?

Can i get a link for those strings ? I do a full custom MY guitar, ans those strings sound awsome !

Which amp do you use here? Sounds just like Donnington! I've got this guitar in Firebird red, but a single cut instead of a double cut and a bigsby, but pretty much the same guitar after all

Had any issues with those heavy gauge strings in regards to the neck?

You should time stamp the riffs so we know which is which. What is the first one before Girls Got Rhythm please?

Nice playing. A bit too much gain maybe?

During "gone shootin" you played angus' part........ .

It's more like 5 minutes of talking

Cool. But any humbucking guitar not too distorted with a good amp with some dirt on will work. And of course, only Malcolm can sound like Malcolm.

very good
