Versatile semi-acoustic guitar
With the Gretsch G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut V-Stoptail Forge Glow Maple, the American traditional company sends a semi-acoustic electric guitar created for contemporary blues and rock sounds into the race. The large semi-hollow body and Gretsch Broad'Tron BT-2S humbuckers promise a strong character sound that skillfully captures the warm timbre of the semi-acoustic construction. While the set "Thin and Nato neck convinces with first-class playing characteristics, the high-quality hardware equipment guarantees an unshakable reliability of the G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut guitar.
Traditional Semi-Hollow Construction
To give the G2622 Streamliner a warm sound with a pleasant woody resonance, Gretsch relies on traditional semi-hollow construction. The standard size body is accordingly made with top, back and sides of multi-layer maple laminate and stabilized by a spruce center block, so that even at high volumes no feedbacks disturb the sound enjoyment. The glued Nato neck in "Thin U" profile also promises pleasant playing characteristics in all positions of the Indian Laurel fingerboard.
Flexible sound with Broad'Tron pickups
At the guitar amp, the G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut guitar convinces with a wide-ranging sound between Blues and rock. The two surprisingly powerful Broad'Tron BT-2S humbuckers skillfully capture the timbre of the semi-acoustic construction and convince not only with full-bodied clean sounds, but also with creamy overdrive tones for punchy riffs and singing solos. The pickups are controlled via a classic Gret circuit with 3-way pickup switch, individual volume controls for each pickup, mastervolume and treble slider.
Reliable hardware features
Last but not least, the G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut V-Stoptail Forge Glow Maple Semi-Hollow guitar comes with a reliable and stylish hardware setup. From the namesake V-shaped tail piece, the strings are fed through a Gretsch Adjusto-Matic bridge, which allows for precise intonation and string position adjustment. Behind the synthetic bone nut, Gretsch Die-Cast tuners also ensure precise tuning of the electric guitar.

Gretsch G2622 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut V-Stoptail Forge Glow Maple
This is my first ever Gretsch, i own a few other makes and was drawn to this immediately. I had never even picked this up to play so it was a bit of a risk! I love it, it's easy to play and can go from quite warm to twangy at the flick of a switch. With som overdrive it's actually very ballsy - surprisingly so! i would recommend highly!
