Full Description

Shaped and sculpted for the ultimate playability

Featuring a fully hollow arched maple body with parallel tone bars, the G2420T produces rich, full harmonics that resonate deeply and delivers that classic "big-body sound" that Gretsch guitars are renowned for. From rhythm to lead playing, this guitar's warm and resonant harmonics will captivate any audience.

Gretsch is renowned for its exceptional build quality, and the G2420T Streamliner is no exception.

Additionally, its adjusto-matic bridge and die-cast sealed tuners ensure excellent tuning stability and intonation, allowing you to focus on your playing without worrying about the guitar's performance.

Get that classic Gretsch sound

Equipped with the all-new Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups, the G2420T offers a powerful and versatile sonic range. These pickups utilise a combination of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets, resulting in stronger mids, tight yet full lows, and smooth, clear highs that retain a musical presence. Achieve both clean and overdriven tones as these pickups deliver exceptional clarity and definition.

The Streamliner features a traditional control layout that includes neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, and a master volume control, all shaped by a three-way pickup switch. What's more, its push/pull pot on the master volume allows for coil-splitting, giving you access to useful single-coil sounds. This added tonal versatility expands your sonic palette and lets you explore even more creative possibilities.

It is adorned with pearloid neo-classic thumbnail inlays on a laurel fingerboard, adding a touch of vintage elegance to its overall aesthetic. Also featured is a Bigsby B60 bridge cover/tailpiece, nickel hardware, and 3-ply tortoise pickguard with a gold Gretsch logo complete the guitar's classic look. From its beautiful aesthetics to its powerful and versatile harmonic, this guitar is sure to inspire players of all styles and genres.
