This Gretsch Can Do It All!
If you’ve been searching for a guitar with the perfect mix of power and charisma, Sweetwater recommends the Gretsch G2622T-P90 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut. This semi-hollowbody electric guitar features a mahogany body for warmth and sustain; a chambered spruce center block fights feedback without weighing the guitar down. The acoustic tone is bolstered by a pair of FideliSonic 90 pickups that pump out vintage-inspired P-90 tones with modern clarity. Easy controls enable you to dial in the perfect tone in mere seconds. You’ll delight at the playability provided by the nato neck and laurel fingerboard. And for expressive bends and warbles, just wiggle the Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. The Gretsch G2622T-P90 is all wrapped up in an eye-catching package with “radio arrow” control knobs, enlarged F-holes, and stylized pickup rings.
Spruce center block fights feedback
The semi-hollow body of this guitar is made from mahogany for a rich, mellow tone. But before the body is finished, Gretsch adds a chambered spruce center block that runs the body’s length. The center block doesn’t just support the top — it neutralizes feedback, so you don’t blow out your speakers with unintentional howling. The center block does all of that and more without adding too much weight to the instrument.
Ultra-articulate FideliSonic 90 pickups
Plug into your favorite tube amp, and bask in the bright, shining tone of FideliSonic 90 pickups. These single-coil pickups are modeled after P-90 pickups from bygone eras, but with a twist that appeals to the modern player. They have all the warmth and bite you expect from a P-90 plus a well-defined treble response that helps them stay clear when you’re playing dirty.
Unlock a range of tones
Don’t be fooled by the classic styling; the G2622T-P90 Streamliner is capable of a variety of sounds. Each pickup has a volume control to create the perfect balance of warmth and brilliance. A master tone control lets you fine-tune your level after you’ve dialed in your pickups to your preference. Using the 3-way pickup selector switch and master volume unlocks even more tones.
Bigsby tailpiece yields smooth vibrato action
Nothing beats the character and vintage vibe that a real Bigsby-style tailpiece adds to the Gretsch G2622T-P90 Streamliner. Based on the original design created by Paul A. Bigsby, this Bigsby-licensed tailpiece is effortless to use, making it particularly easy to pull off slow, subtle, and extended bends.
