The GretschG2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr Double Cut V-Stoptail Abbey Ale is a compact semi-acoustic electric guitar that impresses with comfortable handling and a wide sound spectrum between Blues and rock. The narrow double-cut body made of laminated maple delivers a warm woody tone that is insensitive to feedback even at high-stage volumes thanks to the solid centre block. At the amplifier, furthermore, the two Gretsch Broad'Tron humbuckers convince with a hot sound image that allows expressive guitar playing with lively dynamics and has a high assertiveness with the vocal midrange.

Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr Double Cut V-Stoptail Abbey Ale
Received the guitar about 4 days after ordering, well packaged so for it not to be damaged, which it wasn’t. Received the Carry case a few days later. Perfectly happy with the order and the guitar. It’s well manufactured and feels, looks and plays just great.

Gretsch's roots in brighter tones are clear here even though the guitar performs at its best with high gain. Perfect for punk rock/ alternative and a myriad of genres.

It took me a month to get this due to Brexit delays but it was worth it, the guitar is beautifully built and sounds great. I never thought I would own a Gretsch but for this price its amazing. The only down side i would say on this guitar is the master volume , its either all or nothing , the volume doesn’t come in until its almost full on. Ill probably change that at a later date. The rest is perfect, all I had to do was tune it. It was set up quite low but can go lower if you want ,and the intonation was already perfect , so just plug it in and play it.
