Revitalizing
the best elements from the past, the G2622T Streamliner™ Center 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 instrument—more
performance, more style and most importantly, more volume—while retaining all
you expect from a Gretsch.
The secret
to the Streamliner’s sound is twofold—the Broad’Tron™ BT-2S humbucking pickup
and the spruce center block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner
Collection, the high-output Broad’Tron BT-2S 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 undesired feedback for volume-friendly
performance on rocking 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, 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 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.
All the
classic eye-catching style you’ve come to expect from Gretsch is
here—vintage-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.
