Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar · United States / China · Introduced 2016
The Gretsch G2622 Streamliner Center Block is a bold, high-gain-friendly semi-hollowbody electric guitar designed for players who crave vintage Gretsch aesthetics and bell-like chime without the uncontrollable feedback normally associated with traditional hollow bodies. Built with an arched laminated maple body featuring a lightweight spruce center block running through its core, the G2622 mechanically suppresses high-volume feedback while enhancing sustain, clarity, and low-end punch. It is driven by a pair of custom-wound Broad'Ton B humbucking pickups, which are specifically engineered to handle high-gain distortion pedals and cranked tube amplifiers with incredible articulation, punchy bass response, and sparkling highs. The fast U-shaped nato neck paired with a 12-radius laurel fretboard offers a comfortable, modern grip for chord strumming and single-note soloing alike. Complete with an anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and a iconic V-stoptail, this instrument delivers professional-grade tone and striking retro style for modern working musicians.
