Revitalizing the best elements from the past, the Gretsch G2622T Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut with Bigsby Electric Guitar bursts into the modern music era with powerful sound and style. Brash and feedback-resistant, the sleek G2622T is designed for the guitarist who demands more than the mundane from an instrument—more performance, more style, and most importantly, more volume—while retaining all you expect from a Gretsch.
Design and Construction
The secret to the Streamliner's sound is twofold: the Broad'Tron BT-2S humbucking pickup and the mahogany center block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner Collection, the high-output Broad'Tron pickup spawns improved definition with a tighter bass response for robust lows, pristine highs, and a throaty midrange. A lightweight chambered mahogany center block runs the length of the body, reinforcing the top while eliminating undesired feedback for volume-friendly performance on rock stages. The Streamliner's sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layout—neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, a master volume control, and three-way pickup switching. A fast-playing 12-inch radius laurel fingerboard with elegant pearloid Big Block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets sits atop the white-bound neck with a thin U-shaped profile—ideal for chord work or fiery riffing. Add some shimmer and expression to your playing with the Bigsby-licensed B70 vibrato tailpiece, while the anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and synthetic bone nut grant astounding tuning stability and accurate, slip-free intonation. It is available in Stirling Green.
Classic Style and Control
All the classic eye-catching style you have come to expect from Gretsch is here: vintage-style black control knobs, enlarged F-holes for increased acoustic projection, elegant aged white binding.
