A sleek music machine, the G2655 cranks out the hits with updated features while staying true to That Great Gretsch Sound! thats been a vital component of rock n roll since its inception.
The secret to the Streamliners sound is twofoldthe BroadTron BT-2S humbucking pickup and the spruce center block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner Collection, the high-output BroadTron pickup spawns improved definition with tighter bass response for robust lows, pristine highs and a throaty midrange. A lightweight spruce center block runs the length of the body, reinforcing the top while eliminating undesirable feedback for volume-friendly performance on modern stages. The Streamliners sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layoutneck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching. A fast-playing 12-radius laurel fingerboard with elegant pearloid Big Block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets sits atop the white-bound nato neck with a thin U-shaped profileideal for chord work or fiery riffing.
