Streamliner: The Gretsch Spirit Designed for Today's Stage
The Streamliner series draws inspiration from Gretsch's historic codes (timeless look, semi-hollow feel, Bigsby vibrato) combined with modern performance-oriented choices. The G2622T embodies this approach: a guitar with an immediately recognizable style, designed to deliver a full sound and real presence, with comfortable playability and effective controls.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
The Gretsch G2622T is particularly aimed at advanced beginner to intermediate guitarists seeking their first "real" expressive semi-hollow, as well as experienced musicians looking for a characterful guitar to complement their arsenal. It excels in rockabilly, blues, classic rock, indie, pop, and all genres where grain, attack, and wide chords are desired. The double cutaway facilitates access to the upper frets, and the Bigsby naturally invites subtle vibratos and textures.
Tone
Its laminated maple arched body combined with a center block delivers a well-balanced sound highly appreciated on stage: the "air" of a hollow body, but with more sustain and better feedback control. The two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers provide a dynamic and musical response: more pronounced mids, present but well-controlled lows, and clear highs without harshness. On the controls side, the individual volumes (neck/bridge) and Master Tone allow fine sculpting of the pickup blend, while the push/pull on the Master Volume activates coil splitting to approach more "single coil" textures and increase versatility.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the original setup, favor a set of nickel-plated steel electric strings with gauges .010-.046 (the same gauge as factory-installed), ideal for preserving the comfort and tonal balance of the G2622T.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Gretsch G2622T CB Streamliner suitable for rockabilly and blues?
This model is suitable for rockabilly, blues, classic rock, indie, and pop. Its two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers deliver pronounced mids and clear highs, while the Bigsby B70 allows for subtle vibrato effects.
Does the Bigsby B70 fit on this Gretsch semi-hollow?
The Bigsby B70 tailpiece is paired with an Adjusto-Matic bridge and sealed die-cast tuners. This setup is designed for vibrato effects and the characteristic textures of Gretsch guitars.
Can single-coil sounds be obtained with the Broad'Trons?
The push/pull Master Volume activates coil splitting on both Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups. This makes it possible to approach single-coil-like tones in addition to the HH humbucker configuration.
Is this semi-hollow prone to feedback on stage?
Thanks to its center block, the 16-inch laminated maple body retains the open character of a hollow body while improving feedback control. The center block also provides increased sustain.
What strings should be used on the G2622T Dark Denim?
A set of nickel-plated steel electric strings in .010-.046 gauge matches the factory-installed tension. The bone nut and 22 medium jumbo frets complete this setup.
