Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr.

The Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. is a semi-hollowbody electric guitar built for players who want a compact instrument with strong feedback rejection. Its smaller arched maple body and innovative center block design balance lightweight comfort with a full, rich sound suited for stage and studio work. The double-cutaway shape provides easy upper-fret access for lead lines and chord voicings.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive electric guitar, the G2655T produces no operational noise, generates no heat and draws no electrical power from an outlet. The Broad'Tron BT-3S humbucking pickups cancel mains hum and deliver high-output signal without requiring a battery or external supply. Performance dynamics are controlled entirely by the player's technique and the connected amplifier.

Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups

The all-new Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups use a blend of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets to produce robust mids, tight yet expansive lows and smooth, clear highs. This specific magnet combination defines the guitar's core tonal character and output level. Players seeking a different magnet structure or single-coil voicing will need another instrument.

Questions about this item

How do I fit the Bigsby arm and what step is often missed?

Thread the arm into the vibrato tailpiece collar, then tighten the set screw on the underside of the collar — skipping the set screw lets the arm work loose during play.

What part will need replacement first on the G2655T?

The laurel fingerboard frets will wear before the maple body or nato neck; plan a fret dress or refret after heavy use.

What limits sustain at high volume on this model?

The semi-hollow maple body with center block resists feedback well, but the Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups can still drive the amp into feedback before the guitar itself runs out of sustain.
