Featuring a chambered laminated maple body and a set-neck construction, this model offers impressive resonance and sustain while remaining lightweight and comfortable for extended play. The Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers provide powerful, dynamic tones that cut through the mix, with coil splitting for added versatility. Finished in an elegant Cadillac Green or Gunmetal gloss finish and equipped with a Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece, the G2655T is as visually striking as it is sonically capable. This guitar is built for players who demand standout style and performance without compromise.

Broad'Tron BT-3S Pickups for Dynamic Sound

The Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers featured in this guitar offer a wide-ranging tonal palette, from tight low-end punch to sparkling highs. Designed for clarity and power, these pickups excel in delivering articulate tones that are perfect for rhythm playing and soaring leads. The master volume control includes a push/pull coil-splitting feature, allowing players to switch to single-coil mode for crisp, cutting tones. Combined with individual pickup volume controls and a master tone knob, this setup provides exceptional flexibility in shaping your sound. Whether on stage or in the studio, these pickups ensure a balanced, expressive tone that stands out in any mix.

Bigsby Vibrato Tailpiece for Expressive Playability

The Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece adds a dynamic dimension to the Streamliner's performance capabilities. Its smooth action lets players create subtle pitch bends and shimmering chords or unleash dramatic vibrato effects with ease. Paired with the chambered center block, the Bigsby enhances the guitar's sustain and resonance while maintaining tuning stability. Whether you're crafting textured rhythms or adventurous lead lines, the Bigsby tailpiece provides an added layer of expressiveness to your playing. Combined with the anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge, it ensures that every note rings out clearly and accurately.

Center Block Construction for Enhanced Resonance

The chambered center block design in this guitar reduces feedback while enhancing sustain and tonal balance. The laminated maple body creates a lively and responsive feel, while the set-neck construction ensures seamless tonal transfer and stability. This design makes the instrument ideal for high-gain environments, allowing players to push their sound without sacrificing clarity or control. The lightweight construction also makes the guitar comfortable to play during long sessions, whether standing or seated. With its combination of materials and engineering, this model delivers resonance and durability that players can rely on.

Player-Centric Features for Comfort and Precision

Designed with playability in mind, this model features a soft C-shaped nato neck and laurel fingerboard with a 12" radius for smooth fretting and effortless bends. Pearloid Neo Classic thumbnail inlays provide a vintage aesthetic, while medium-jumbo frets make chords and single-note runs equally comfortable. The real bone nut ensures consistent tone and tuning stability, while die-cast sealed tuners keep your strings firmly in place. With its compact body dimensions and ergonomic design, the Streamliner Center Block Jr. is perfect for musicians seeking precision and comfort in a smaller package.
