Gretsch Guitars G2655T Streamliner Cb Jr. LRL Forge Glow

A Streamliner Designed for Modern Playing, with Gretsch DNA

The G2655T Streamliner embodies the Gretsch "hollow/semi-hollow" spirit with an efficiency-focused approach: a laminated maple body, a redesigned center block, and a compact ergonomics. It retains the iconic aesthetic (F-holes, Gretsch pickguard, Bigsby) while aiming for a more stable response at high volume and a sharper attack, perfect for both stage and studio.

Who Is It For, and Which Styles?

This Gretsch is well suited for intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an easy-to-handle, expressive, and versatile semi-hollow. Its natural playground covers rock, blues, indie, pop, rockabilly, and all styles where both body and definition are desired. The center block helps maintain control under saturation, where a traditional hollowbody might become more prone to feedback.

Sound

The combination of arched laminated maple (top/back) and center block delivers a sound that is both open and focused: clear attacks, tighter lows, and enhanced sustain, with a strong presence in the mix. The Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups provide power and a modern tone, with pronounced mids, full yet precise lows, and smooth highs that remain clear. The coil split via the master volume push/pull expands the palette for clearer, snappier sounds, very useful for rhythm playing and arpeggios.
