The Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr Double Cut V-Stoptail Black is a compact semi-acoustic electric guitar that stands out for comfortable playability and a wide tonal range from blues to rock. Its slim double-cut laminated maple body delivers a warm, woody tone that remains less prone to feedback even at high stage volumes, thanks to the solid center block. At the amplifier, the two Gretsch Broad’Tron humbuckers produce a powerful, expressive sound with lively dynamics and strong presence in the vocal mid-range.
Thanks to its compact body, the Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr. is easy to handle.

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.

This a great guitar if you are looking to get that classic Gretsch sound at a reasonable price. There are a wide variety of sounds which can be achieved from it, from twang to a wonderfully warm break up with the help of an overdrive pedal. It is very light and comfortable to play. The only let down with it, and this is purely subjective, is that the gloss finish masks the detail in the wood and dare I say it, makes it look a bit cheap. A matte finish and lighter stain, in my view, would have lifted the aesthetics to another level.
