Gretsch FSR G2657TG Streamliner Center Block Jr, Midnight Sapphire Metallic Overview
The exhilarating Gretsch G2657TG Streamliner™ Center Block Jr. Double-Cut with Bigsby® is designed for three simple things—high gain-friendly performance, slick, easy playability and spectacular style. A sleek music machine, the Gretsch G2657TG cranks out the hits with updated features while staying true to the iconic Gretsch tone that’s been a vital component of rock ‘n’ roll since its inception.
The secret to the Streamliner’s sound is twofold—the Broad’Tron™ BT-2S humbucking pickup and the spruce centre block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner Collection, the high-output Broad’Tron pickup spawns improved definition with a tighter bass response for robust lows, pristine highs and a throaty midrange. A lightweight spruce centre block runs the length of the body, reinforcing the top while eliminating undesired feedback for volume-friendly performance on modern stages. The Streamliner’s sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layout—neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching. Add some shimmer and expression to your playing with the Bigsby®-licensed B50 vibrato tailpiece, while the anchored Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and synthetic bone nut grant astounding tuning stability and accurate, slip-free intonation.
A fast-playing 12”-radius laurel fingerboard with elegant pearloid inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets sits atop the bound neck with a thin “U”-shaped profile—ideal for chord work or fiery riffing.
All the classic eye-catching style you’ve come to expect from Gretsch is here—vintage-style black control knobs, enlarged F-holes for increased acoustic projection, slick-looking gold hardware, three-ply tortoiseshell pickguard and arched laminated maple construction. Easy to play while rocking out thanks to its smaller body, the Gretsch G2657TG is a phenomenal instrument for the modern musician who wants to control the stage and the audience while standing out from the pack.
