at a glance
• Semi-hollowbody electric guitar with classic Gretsch styling
• Two rich and rowdy Broad'Tron humbuckers
• Semi-Hollow design adds warmth and a woody tone
• Thin "U" neck profile offers superb comfort
• V-Stoptail tailpiece with anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge
Hot-Rodded Riff Machine!
THIN “U”-SHAPED PROFILEThe real power behind the Streamliner’s power lies in Gretsch’s latest offering – the impressive Broad’Tron BT-2S humbuckers. Specifically designed for this impressive collection, the powerful high-output Broad’Tron humbuckers deliver greater definition with noticeably tighter bass response for robust lows, chiming highs and a cutting midrange.
To take control of all of this power, Gretsch included a traditional control layout - neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching. Also included is a smooth-playing 12”-radius laurel fingerboard with elegant pearloid Hump 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 firing off hot-rodded riffing.
In addition V-Stoptail tailpiece stays true to the classic Gretsch look, while the anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and synthetic bone nut grant astounding tuning stability and accurate, slip-free intonation.
Slick Nickel Hardware!
INIMITABLE GRETSCH STYLEAll 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 tortoise pickguard and arched laminated maple construction. Nearly impossible to put down once you pick it up and start playing, the G2655 has the updated sound and classic style that has earned Gretsch accolades since the dawn of rock ‘n’ roll.
Available in Gunmetal, Single Barrel Stain and Village Amber.
