Handy semi-acoustic guitar for Blues and rock
The Gretsch G2655TG Streamliner Center Block Jr Double-Cut Bigsby Riviera Blue is a versatile semi-acoustic electric guitar offering comfortable playability and a broad tonal range spanning Blues to rock. Its compact semi-hollow body with a solid center block, paired with Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups, delivers a warm, woody character perfect for expressive clean tones and dynamic overdrive. The Bigsby Vibrato adds shimmering embellishments, while the set Nato neck in a soft 'C' profile ensures comfortable playability all the way up the fretboard.
Both sonically and visually, the Gretsch G2655TG Streamliner CB Jr in Riviera Blue offers an absolute vintage feeling.
Thanks to the soft 'C' profile, which is not too strong, the glued Nato neck offers comfortable playability in all positions of the 22-fret Indian Laurel fingerboard.
Semi-hollow guitar with a handy body
The Gretsch G2655TG Streamliner Jr emphasizes comfortable handling without compromising its signature tonal character. Its compact dimensions make it easy to play both standing on a strap and sitting on the thigh. The classic construction laminated maple top, back, and sides with a solid spruce center block provides a resonant sound that resists feedback even at high volumes.
The coil split function of the push/pull tone control can be used to elicit dazzling single-coil sounds from the semi-hollow guitar.
Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups with flexible switching
The guitar is equipped with two in-house Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers, carefully matched to the semi-hollow design. They produce a surprisingly powerful sound that retains the guitar's naturally woody timbre, making it ideal for full clean tones as well as juicy overdrive. A flexible 3-way circuit features separate volume controls for each pickup, along with a master volume and treble control for precise tonal shaping.
High-quality hardware equipment with a gold look
Gretsch completes the G2655TG Streamliner Center Block Jr Double Cut Bigsby Riviera Blue with premium hardware that combines classic looks with exceptional reliability. The Bigsby B-50 Vibrato tailpiece enables smooth, expressive pitch bends, while the Gretsch Adjusto-Matic bridge ensures accurate intonation and string action. Die-cast tuners on the headstock provide precise tuning and long-lasting stability.

Gretsch G2655TG Streamliner Center Block Jr Double Cut Bigsby Riviera Blue
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.
