description

Premium double cutaway, semi-hollowbody electric guitar with Bigsby B70 bridge, Laminated maple top, back and sides for a full and resonant sound, Baldwin-era small F-holes develop the sound and look distinguished, Powerful and versatile Gretsch Broad’Tron humbuckers, White binding with black purfling with a matching black pickguard, Bound, late '50s 6120 style headstock with rock-solid sealed die-cast tuners, Adjust-o-Matic bridge secured on a rosewood base for superior intonation.


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 BT-2S 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 rocking stages. Add some shimmer and expression to your playing with the Bigsby-licensed B70 vibrato tailpiece, while the anchored Adjusto-Matic™ Bridge and synthetic bone nut grant astounding tuning stability and accurate, slip-free intonation. This guitar is brand new condition as when it left the factory, and you can be the first person to play it!
