A Punchy Gretsch Short-scale Bass
With the Streamliner Jet Club single-cut bass, Gretsch puts a fun short-scale instrument in the hands of newcomers and veteran bassists alike. Made with a nato body, nato neck, and laurel fingerboard, you’ll jet around the Streamliner Jet Club with plenty of comfort. A Slim C neck combined with a 30-inch scale length ensures that syncopated grooves and lines that rock the root are a breeze. Thanks to its lithe form and short-scale length, the Gretsch Streamliner Jet Club makes a fantastic first bass for kids, a superb traveling instrument, or a hardy short-scale for bassists desiring new digs. The Streamliner Jet Club is equipped with two single-coil bass pickups capable of filling the room with powerful subsonic frequencies. Finally, bassists can fine-tune their tone with the onboard volume knobs for each pickup and a master tone.

Built with Gretsch style
Sweetwater bassists concur: You’ll be the coolest musician in the room with the Gretsch Streamliner Jet Club slung across your shoulders! It starts with a nato body and bolt-on nato neck capped with a laurel fingerboard that makes for an excellent playing surface. Gretsch then outfitted this bass with player-centric components like 20 medium-jumbo frets, a Slim C neck, and die-cast sealed tuning machines to ensure satisfactory performance. At the far end, a 4-saddle adjustable tailpiece stands at the ready, and a bone nut seals the deal for excellent intonation. Other embellishments, including pearloid Neo-classic thumbnail inlays and knurled radio knobs, complete the scene for a bass guitar that looks and plays with massive appeal.
A dynamic duo of single-coils
With a punchy sound, player-friendly feel, and retro looks, the Streamliner Jet Club is poised for an enjoyable jam session. The secret to the Streamliner Jet Club’s massive sound is two single-coil bass pickups. Each pickup is equipped with corresponding Gretsch knurled radio volume knobs that allow bassists to toggle their sound. What’s more, a master tone knob stands at the ready to add extra sonic flavor. You'll be surprised at the powerful sonics you can draw out of this small bass!
