Gretsch Guitars G2622 CB Streamliner LRL Gunmetal

The Essentials to Know About the Gretsch G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut Guitar with V-Stoptail

• Semi-hollow format with center block: more sustain, more attack, and excellent feedback control, without losing the "body" character.


• Two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers: pronounced mids, tight lows, and smooth highs for immediate versatility.


• Coil split via push/pull on the master volume: quick access to clearer, single-coil-typed tones.


• Distinctive Gretsch look: V-Stop tailpiece, 3-ply tortoise pickguard, "radio" knobs, and nickel hardware.

A Streamliner Designed for the Gretsch Sound... in a More Modern and Powerful Version

The Streamliner series revisits Gretsch DNA by focusing on performance: vintage aesthetics, but a design centered on output level, stability, and versatility. The G2622 features a comfortable double cutaway and a next-generation Center Block to maintain the semi-hollow spirit while gaining hold at high volume and precision, both in the studio and rehearsals.

Who Is It For, and What Styles?

The Gretsch G2622 is aimed at ambitious beginners as well as intermediate players who want an easy-to-handle semi-hollow capable of covering many grounds. It excels in rock, blues, indie, pop, and rockabilly, and remains very comfortable when seeking a full but controlled sound. The coil split and ergonomic controls make it particularly suitable for switching between registers without changing guitars.

The Sound

Its arched laminated maple body delivers a clear response and great definition, while the center block enhances attack, stabilizes the low end, and improves sustain, all while limiting feedback at high volume. The two Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups (Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets) provide a warm yet articulate humbucker tone: present mids to cut through the mix, full and tight lows, and smooth highs that remain musical. The control section (individual volumes, master tone, master volume) allows fine-tuning of the neck/bridge pickup balance, and the push/pull on the master volume opens up airier textures, ideal for clear rhythms, arpeggios, or more "twangy" attacks.
