Product Name: | Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. Double-Cut Bigsby Electric Guitar, Brownstone Maple |
Product Description: | The exhilarating G2655T 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 G2655T cranks out the hits with updated features while staying true to That Great Gretsch Sound! 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 center block. Designed specifically for the Streamliner Collection, the high-output Broad'Tron pickup spawns improved definition with tighter bass response for robust lows, pristine highs and a throaty midrange. A lightweight spruce center 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 Big Block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets sits atop the white-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, elegant aged white binding with upgraded purfling, slick-looking nickel hardware, three-ply black pickguard and arched laminated maple construction. Easy to play while rocking out thanks to its smaller body, the G2655T is a phenomenal instrument for the modern musician who wants to control the stage and the audience while standing out from the pack. |

If you're brand new you may want to pass on this in favor of a hardtail model, they do come up for sale pretty often. The Bigsby is great for eye candy but unless you really want to actually use it, I don't think it's worth the added cost, weight and complication.
Spend the money you save on a nice clip-on tuner and a few sets of strings.
I'm not recommending against it because I think it's a bad value, but rather because I think it's an unnecessary complication for a brand new player.
1 - replace the Bigsby spring
2 - put on $60 locking tuners
3 - oil/lube the nut
I've had mine for a few months now, and it'll stay in tune even if I dive bomb with the Bigsby
