Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr Double-Cut with Bigsby Forge Glow
Double-Cut with Bigsby represents Gretsch's bold approach to combining vintage aesthetics with contemporary innovation. This compact powerhouse features a smaller arched maple body housing an all-new centre block design that strikes the perfect balance between lightweight comfort and full, rich tone. The innovative centre block construction enhances attack and sustain whilst providing excellent feedback rejection, making it ideal for guitarists who refuse to compromise on performance. At the heart of the G2655T's sonic character are the new high-output Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups, which utilise a sophisticated combination of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets. These pickups produce stronger midrange response, tight yet full low frequencies, and smooth, clear highs that maintain musical presence across all playing styles. The traditional control layout includes individual neck and bridge pickup volume controls, master tone and volume controls, plus three-way pickup switching for comprehensive tonal shaping. Adding to its versatility, the G2655T incorporates a push/pull pot on the master volume control that enables coil-splitting functionality. This feature unlocks useful single-coil sounds, expanding the guitar's tonal palette beyond its natural humbucker voice. The Streamliner Collection successfully revitalises classic Gretsch elements whilst introducing exciting new features that provide exceptional performance, sound, and style at remarkable value.

Who doesn't need a Semi Hollow body guitar in a smaller body size. That's what I was thinking when I ordered this one in Walnut Stain and I'm glad I did. What a classy Gretsh. It is lighter than I expected and is very comfortable to play. Gretsch is building very nice guitars. No issues with them besides tweeking the setup, however... when I received the newly sealed guitar I saw the highest part of the Bigsby sticking out of the box and yes it had some damage from bumping into things from transport. Although this was a bummer, the rest of the guitar looks great, nice wood grain and overall a fine guitar. I called Adorama, showed them pictures of this issue and they sorted things out for me. It was fair and I kept the guitar. It has it's first "door ding".

I read every single review I could find about this guitar before purchasing one. The most common complaints I read were about the bridge being of lower quality (causing tuning issues and rattling), and the weight being off balance when using a strap. I was a bit weary of buying a non-USA made "budget" guitar, but wanted a semi-hollow guitar that I didn't have to worry about getting knocked around at shows. I have to say I absolutely love this guitar. The quality and feel of it is mind blowing and far beyond what I expected. I own several guitars including a Les Paul Standard and a USA Telecaster Deluxe, and this guitar is made, sounds, and performs just as well as those, for 1/3 of the price I paid for them.

Could it be upgraded to a higher quality bridge? Yes, but I see no need (on mine at least). The walnut finish is beautiful and looks even better in person than the pictures. Very similar in color to the cherry Gibson SG. I'm really glad I pulled the trigger on this guitar. If you are looking for a solid semi-hollow for an incredible price, buy this! Don't let the fact that it's not made in the states dissuade you.

I just purchased this guitar May 2024, I'm very pleased and pleasantly surprised. I own many expensive Fenders and was hesitant about purchasing a lower cost guitar but felt it was worth a shot since Fender owns Gretsch now and distributes these. I like the G2655T very much for what I paid. I also liked the customer service and how the guitar shipped. I like Adorama for these reasons. I may buy another one soon!

GREAT price. Wonderful guitar. Like the color even more than I thought. Looks remarkably better in real life than the photos. Shipped quickly and packed really well. So happy with it and the service I'm looking at another one now. Very happy all the way around. Wish I knew about Adorama sooner.
This is probably the best guitar I've owned to date. The finish is beautiful. It's a deep cherry red with the walnut grains showing thru the finish. The action is super low and easy to play. The tremolo bar is sturdy. It's a masterpiece. My only two critiques is that the pin for the neck strap is on the back behind where the neck attaches to the body. And I wish the knobs had numbers on them. Still an extremely happy with this purchase.
This is a nice lightweight (hollow bodied) guitar which is easy to play. I found the controls a bit more complicated than my Telecaster (but you get used to them and the inbuilt switch to make the pickups single coil is a nice touch giving a wide variety of tones. I wish the buttons etc were black rather than cream which would go better with the black headstock and silver metalwork but that's just my taste. It's a versatile guitar at a decent price (especially if you can get it on offer with the tremolo!) which is a bit out of the ordinary and will do pretty much whatever you want it to do
Overall a nice guitar. Out if the box it had good action and played well. The humbuckers sound good and you can get some nice tones out of it. However the tone knob did not have much variation, and Bigsby arm was a bit high for my taste - easily can be taken care of with a shorter spring.
I selected this guitar for what seems like ridiculous reasons, but it ended up working out great. I am a paraplegic that must spend many hours a day in bed to reduce the creation of pressure sores from sitting in my chair too long at a time. I have a Taylor 214ce DLX that I use at church and love playing, but I needed something with a smaller body so I can easily play it while sitting in bed. I originally purchased a Little Martin, but while it worked great for my purpose, I didn't like the way it sounded. I went to my local Guitar Shop and they suggested a semi-hollow body guitar. I didn't own an electric, but was intrigued as I looked at the Epi 339 and Gretsch 2655t. The size seemed like it would work great. I chose the Gretsch because I liked the way it looked ... MoreI selected this guitar for what seems like ridiculous reasons, but it ended up working out great.

I didn't own an electric, but was intrigued as I looked at the Epi 339 and Gretsch 2655t. The size seemed like it would work great. I chose the Gretsch because I liked the way it looked better.When I received the guitar, I could hardly contain my enthusiasm because it was much prettier than the website displayed. I chose the walnut stain but it looked more like a dark cherry color which I loved. I couldn't find a single flaw in the finish. The binding is immaculate and gives a professional look. I think the block inlays in the fingerboard are exquisite. This may seem trivial to some, but I love the name "Gretsch" on the headstock. Unlike "Squire" or "Epiphone" that designate a lower end product from the parent company, one would not detect by a casual perusal that this guitar is made in Indonesia. This was the perfect choice for me. The semi-hollow body is plenty loud enough when I play it unplugged. When I plug in to an amplifier it sounds simply amazing. I also love the dimension the Bigsby brings to the expressiveness of the guitar. Mine creates no tuning issues that others have expressed.If you are thinking of a travel size acoustic, consider this junior size semi-hollow. It fulfills my need for size but has opened up a whole new world of possibilities.
This guitar is a amazing and very underrated. Love the sustain from the pickups, got a nice warm twang sound signature. My first bigsby and its awesome! Quality is better than epiphone. Adorama shipped this flawlessly and with quality strings. Green tone paint is just gorgeous. Not too flashy. Only slight negative is the strings dont hold tension as good as other guitars.
The Gretsch G2655T is a fantastic guitar and plays well above the price. The guitar finish is different color based on lighting. It is light metallic green in standard home lighting, but shows as gunmetal gray in brighter lights. It was set-up well from the factory with string action of 1.6mm. Did have to give a little neck relief by seasonal truss rod adjustment (as expected). Overall a great guitar and a great experience shopping at Adorama.
