The G2622T Streamliner Center Block Doublet-cut with Bigsby revitalizes the best elements of the past and enters modernity with powerful style and sound. It is designed for the musician who demands more than the mundane from his instruments: better performance, more style and more volume.
The secret of this semi-hollow guitar lies in two parts: its Broad'Tron BT-2S humbuckers and its spruce center block. The Broad'Tron BT-2S designed specifically for this line, have a higher output with robust and defined bass, immaculate highs and guttural midtones. The lightweight spruce center block that runs the length of the body reinforces the top and helps control noise through feedback so you can play at any volume and rock wherever you want. This sonic power of the Streamliner is shaped and tamed by classic Gretsch controls: volume controls for each pickup, a master tone, a master volume and a 3-position switch. The steering wheel of this ship, its 12" laurel fingerboard, is made for fast playing and ease and sits atop its comfortable U-shaped close-to-body nato neck.
As if that were not enough, the Streamliner features a Bigsby B70 vibrato tailpiece to give expression and brightness to your music.
