Gretsch G2655 Streamliner CB Jr, Gunmetal Metallic - Secondhand

Full Description

Electronics for any style

Don't be restricted. The Gretsch G2655 is loaded with the pickups you need to play with complete freedom. Broad'Tron BT-2S humbuckers at the bridge and neck positions combine to deliver a full-bodied, extensive tonal palette. They're designed to perform brilliantly at any frequency. So whether you're looking to play booming, bassy power chords or sizzling, piercing solos, the G2655 has got you covered.

Vicious volume with crystal-clear clarity

Make sure everything you play really gets heard. Because the G2655 Streamliner lets you play at the highest volumes. The Broad'Tron pickups are high output, meaning cranking your sound up to 11 won't be a problem. And unlike many other hollow body guitars, Gretsch have engineered this model to ensure that the unpleasant buzzing often associated with playing loudly is eliminated. Its lightweight spruce centre block prevents feedback, ensuring every note you hit shines with sparkling clarity. This is a guitar that's born for the stage.

Never stop playing

Playability is something that often goes overlooked in a guitar. Many manufacturers prioritise fancy electronics and a stylish aesthetic over playing experience. But not Gretsch. They know that an awesome-sounding instrument is useless unless you can play it comfortably and easily.

And that's the exact experience the G2655 provides. Thanks to a slim "U"-shaped neck, your hand can naturally and smoothly glide to all positions along the instrument's scale. Perfect for speedy playing and difficult chord sequences. A slightly more compact Streamliner Jr. body size provides your strumming hand with greater access to the strings, too. Enjoy playability at its absolute best.
