SKU CH-XSFK-FVSDW

A semi-hollow electric guitar with a compact maple body, centre block, two Broad'Tron humbuckers and a Bigsby vibrato

  • Semi-hollow maple body with center block reduces feedback
  • Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers blend Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets
  • Compact double-cutaway design offers lightweight playing comfort
  • Bigsby vibrato tailpiece adds expressive pitch control
  • Laurel fingerboard on nato neck provides smooth feel

Compact Semi-Hollow Body with Center Block

The G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. is a semi-hollowbody electric guitar built for players who want traditional Gretsch tone in a lighter, more manageable instrument. Its smaller arched maple body incorporates a center block that adds sustain and reduces feedback. This design suits gigging musicians and studio players who need comfort during long sessions without sacrificing presence.

Dual Broad'Tron BT-3S Humbuckers

The decisive specification is the pair of Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups, which blend Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets for high output with strong mids, tight lows, and smooth highs. This pickup configuration delivers a versatile, powerful voice that handles clean articulation and driven grit equally well. Players seeking single-coil clarity or active electronics will need a different guitar.

Bigsby Tremolo and Laurel Fingerboard

The licensed Bigsby vibrato tailpiece adds expressive pitch control while the laurel fingerboard on a nato neck provides a smooth playing surface. The compact semi-hollow construction keeps weight down and feedback in check, freeing the player to move on stage. Builders needing a fully hollow body or a fixed hardtail bridge should look elsewhere.
