Revitalising the best elements from the past, the G2622T Streamliner Centre Block Double-Cut with Bigsby® 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 instrumentmore performance, more style and most importantly, more volumewhile retaining all you expect from a Gretsch.
The secret to the Streamliners sound is twofoldthe BroadTron BT-2S humbucking pickup and the mahogany centre block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner Collection, the high-output BroadTron BT-2S pickup spawns improved definition with tighter bass response for robust lows, pristine highs and a throaty midrange. A lightweight chambered mahogany centre block runs the length of the body, reinforcing the top while eliminating undesired feedback for volume-friendly performance on rocking 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. 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.
All the classic eye-catching style youve come to expect from Gretsch is herevintage-style black control knobs, enlarged F-holes for increased acoustic projection, elegant aged white binding with upgraded purfling, slick-looking nickel hardware, three-ply black pickguard and arched laminated maple construction. Nearly impossible to put down once you pick it up and start playing, the G2622T has the updated sound and classic style that has earned Gretsch accolades since the dawn of rock n roll.
