Gretsch Guitars G2622T Streamliner Cb LRL Arctic Blue

A Streamliner Designed for Modern Playing (Without Losing Gretsch DNA)

With the G2622T Streamliner Center Block, Gretsch offers a very contemporary take on the semi-hollow: a laminated maple body with a classic look, optimized by a redesigned center block. The goal is clear: retain the openness and presence of a hollowbody while gaining control at high volume, precision, and sustain. An ideal guitar for those who want the Gretsch style with a more "solid" and versatile response for everyday playing.

For Whom, and in Which Styles?

The G2622T is particularly aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an expressive electric capable of covering multiple genres without being limited to just one. It excels in rock, blues, pop, indie, and rockabilly, thanks to the Bigsby and Broad'Tron pickups. The coil split additionally provides thinner, snappier sounds, useful for more open rhythms or defined arpeggios.

The Sound

Its Center Block construction balances warmth and precision: the attack is sharper than a traditional hollowbody, sustain is extended, and high-volume behavior remains controlled. The laminated maple body with arched top and back promotes clear projection and strong presence in the mix, while retaining a touch of "semi-hollow" spaciousness. On the electronics side, the Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups deliver a full sound with solid mids, firm lows, and soft yet precise highs. The combination of two pickup volume controls, a master tone, and a push/pull master volume allows fine sculpting of dynamics, from thick crunch to clearer, more biting tones in split mode.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To stay within original specifications, a set of nickel electric strings .010-.046 is perfectly suited. A strap (with standard strap button attachment) and a tuner ideally complete the setup for both stage and home use. If you frequently use the vibrato, a nut lubricant can also help stabilize tuning (without altering the instrument).
