Streamliner: An Accessible Gretsch That Retains the Brand's DNA
The Streamliner series modernizes Gretsch's historical codes while incorporating current choices to meet today's guitarists' needs. With its Center Block construction, the G2622 aims for an ideal balance between semi-hollow character (openness, breadth) and better feedback control, allowing you to play louder and more confidently in a band setting.
For Which Guitarists and Styles
The Gretsch G2622 is suited for ambitious beginners, intermediate players seeking a versatile semi-hollow, and even seasoned musicians wanting an inspiring daily guitar. It excels in rock, blues, pop, indie, and rockabilly, with enough power for heavier tones thanks to the Broad'Tron pickups, while maintaining clear definition for rhythm playing.
The Sound
The laminated maple construction (top, back, and sides) provides a quick response, precise attack, and clear highs, while the Center Block format enhances stability, sustain, and control at high volumes. The two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers deliver a dense and articulate sound: the neck pickup is warm and generous for leads and jazzy-blues chords, and the bridge pickup is more incisive for riffs and rhythms that cut through the mix. The coil split (push/pull) opens up airier, brighter textures, useful for switching from a clean verse to a more saturated chorus without changing guitars.
