Streamliner: The Gretsch Spirit Designed for Today's Stage
The Streamliner series modernizes Gretsch's historic codes by combining them with performance-oriented modern choices. The G2622 positions itself as a semi-hollow "center block" guitar with a strong character: it targets punch, sustain, and control at high volume, while maintaining the visual DNA and playing signature that made the brand famous.
For Which Guitarists and Styles
The Gretsch G2622 is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want a stable and expressive semi-hollow capable of covering blues and rock to indie, as well as pop and more saturated sounds. The double cutaway facilitates high-fret playing, while the comprehensive electronics allow quick tone adaptation for rehearsals and live performances.
Sound
Its laminated maple construction with a center block offers a highly sought-after balance: the instrument retains the openness and breadth typical of a semi-hollow, while providing increased sustain and better control of feedback when gain is increased. The two Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups deliver a warm and powerful range, with a clear attack and present mids. The coil splitting via push/pull broadens the palette to airier, brighter sounds, useful for arpeggios, snappy rhythms, and more "twangy" parts.
