Description
This is the Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. with V-Stoptail in Village Amber. If you're looking for a compact semi-hollow that's easy to handle but still has that unmistakable Gretsch vibe, this one really hits the mark. It's a great fit for intermediate players, gigging musicians, or anyone who wants classic looks, solid performance, and modern flexibility all rolled into one.
You get a pair of Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers for a bold, clear tone that holds up whether you're clean or running overdrive. The smaller laminated maple body with a chambered center block helps keep feedback under control and gives you a lightweight feel that won't wear you out on long sets. The push/pull coil-split on the master volume expands your tonal palette, and the V-Stoptail tailpiece provides extra tuning stability while still keeping things stylish. Controls are straightforward and responsive, so it's easy to dial in exactly what you need.
Playability is a strong point here, with a soft "C" neck that feels comfortable for most hand sizes and a smooth 12-inch radius laurel fingerboard. The Adjusto-Matic bridge and die-cast tuners add to the reliability factor. We've found these Jr. models to be dependable gigging guitars that cover a lot of ground-easy to set up, easy to play, and they really hold their own both live and in the studio.
