5-ply maple body offers excellent definition
Maple is one of the most lively, bright, and colorful tonewoods out there, which is exactly why Gretsch decided to make their G2622T Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut almost entirely out of this wonderful wood. This semi-hollowbody’s 5-ply arched laminated body offers a full 16-inch width and yields a wonderfully snappy, open tone that, when combined with the balanced character of its Broad’Tron BT-3S pickups, cuts through a dense mix and sounds great in any situation.
Feedback-free hollowbody tone
You get a lot of tonal bang for your buck with the G2622T Streamliner, thanks to its long center block. Running the full length of the body, the center block allows the otherwise hollow body to resist resonant-frequency feedback. At Sweetwater, we’ve found that this weight-relieved center block lets us rock out louder, with more gain, without our amplifier squealing out of control.
Exceptional sonic flexibility
Pick up the G2622T Streamliner, and you'll quickly realize you can pull off some tonal tricks you may have figured weren’t within this 6-string's grasp. With a volume control for each pickup, you can create the perfect balance between warmth, bite, and brilliance when both pickups are engaged. The master tone control lets you fine-tune your sound once you’ve got the pickups dialed in. Use the master volume control to take your tube amp from clean to growling without changing the balance between your pickups. Or, simply pull up to enable single-coil tone tapping for even greater sonic range!
Bigsby tailpiece yields smooth vibrato action
Nothing beats the character and vintage vibe that a real Bigsby-style tailpiece adds to the G2622T Streamliner. Based on the original design created by Paul A. Bigsby, this Bigsby-licensed B70 tailpiece is effortless to use, making it particularly easy to pull off slow, subtle, and extended bends.
