Key Features
Center Block Design: The G2655 has a lightweight spruce center block running through the body, reducing feedback at high volumes while preserving the resonance and sustain of a semi-hollow guitar.
Broad’Tron BT-2S Humbuckers: These pickups deliver a high-output, yet clear and dynamic tone. They provide the warmth and grit often associated with Gretsch but with more punch, making it ideal for rock, blues, and beyond.
V-Stoptail Tailpiece: The V-Stoptail adds to the guitar’s vintage aesthetic while offering stable tuning and solid sustain, giving players classic style and modern reliability.
Double-Cutaway Body: The double-cut design not only looks sleek but also provides easier access to higher frets, making it suitable for lead players who want freedom across the fretboard.
Laurel Fingerboard: This adds warmth and clarity to the tone, while also offering smooth playability.
Burnt Orchid Finish: The Burnt Orchid color is unique and eye-catching, adding a bold visual statement that complements the guitar’s modern-meets-vintage vibe.
