Essential Information About the Gretsch G2420TG Streamliner Hollow Body with Bigsby LTD Guitar
- Two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers with coil split on the Master Volume to switch from a thick tone to a sharper, more biting sound.
- Fully hollow arched laminated maple body and Parallel Tone Bars bracing for wide resonance and an authentic "big-body sound."
- Bigsby B60 vibrato and Adjusto-Matic bridge on a fixed laurel base for stability and smooth vibrato.
- Vintage White finish, gold hardware, G-Arrow knobs, and Pearloid Big Block inlays for a "That Great Gretsch Sound" look.
Limited Edition Streamliner: Contemporary Gretsch Style
Designed for the modern guitarist, the G2420TG LTD continues the Streamliner spirit: making Gretsch aesthetics and tone accessible while adopting updated electronics. Its single cutaway, aged binding, and gold hardware mark a limited edition with a stage-ready look, without compromising the hollow body DNA that made the brand's history.
Who Is It For and What Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced players seeking a versatile hollow body. It excels in jazz, blues, rockabilly, and indie. The Broad'Tron coil split also opens up twangier and funkier textures, while the Bigsby adds vintage thrill for ballads, surf, and modern pop.
The Sound
The Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups offer a full and defined range: firm lows, present mids, and silky highs. In humbucker mode, sustain is generous and low-noise; in coil-split mode, clarity and attack increase. The arched laminated maple body and Parallel Tone Bars bracing provide airy projection and excellent note separation. The Adjusto-Matic bridge combined with the bone nut enhances intonation and articulation, while the Bigsby B60 delivers smooth vibrato without compressing dynamics. Independent volume controls (neck/bridge) allow fine blending, complemented by a musical Master Tone.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To protect your instrument, choose the Gretsch G2622T hard case or the Gretsch G2162 Hollow Body gig bag. For maintenance and feel, prefer nickel .010-.046 strings (original gauge) and a standard-width guitar strap for comfort on stage.
