not according to ProAudioStar. (Nor Gretsch on their G5222 page.)

All-new Black Top Broad'Tron Pickups

A pair of Black Top Broad'Tron pickups drive the chambered mahogany body with maple top through thick, aggressive overdrive while maintaining astounding definition and note balance suitable for the most pristine clean tone.

I was curious as to why we were seeing such deep discounts on the 5222s the 5220s and blah blah blah, looked like they were clearing out old stock, and making room for a refresh, maybe he new models have something significantly different. They do, Filter'Trons

Gretsch has this on there website

"Black Top Filter'Tron™ Pickups - Quintessential Power and Clarity
Black Top Filter'Tron pickups amplify and accentuate the Electromatic Double Jet FT's chambered body to produce a wide, balanced and transparent tone. Loud and punchy, this Jet sounds out with remarkable definition at any level of gain"

Kind of excited because now I have a reason to get another Gretsch

The G5232T has Filtertrons, this one doesn't. And all of the 5220/2 models on Gretsch's website have Broadtrons.

Wow, how embarrassing, I mean I don't even know what to say other than how I didn't know the 5230s and 32s existed is just ridiculous . so let me just say I apologize for my response to your post.
