Description
The Gretsch G2420 Streamliner Hollow Body Single-Cut features a fully hollow arched maple body, combined with parallel tone bars for heightened tonal depth and structural reinforcement. Paying homage to the 1950s and '60s, the G2420 revives a model name from that era, with its distinctive single-cutaway design. This design nods to the iconic big-bodied Gretsch guitars of the 1950s, drawing inspiration from models like the G-6120, Anniversary, and Tennessee Rose.
Featuring a comfortable nato "C" shaped neck, the G2420 hosts a 12"-radius laurel fingerboard with pearloid Neo Classic thumbnail inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. It's also equipped with Gretsch's own Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers, delivering a tone that's characterized by stronger mids, tight but full lows, and smooth, clear highs. The traditional control layout includes neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, and master volume control, offering simple and intuitive tone shaping.
Furthering this guitar's versatility, the G2420 boasts some unique performance features such as a push/pull pot on the master volume control for coil-splitting of the pickups. This allows players to switch to a single-coil sound, enhancing the guitar's overall versatility. It also sports a Chromatic II Tailpiece that follows the shapes of strings to allow a more comfortable playing experience for the user.
Highlighted by a Fireburst, gloss finish, the G2420 draws inspiration from Gretsch's Duo Jet, featuring a similar pickguard, Baldwin-era f-holes, big block inlays, and a headstock shape that adds vintage aesthetic. With its modern twist on the great Gretsch sound, the G2420 Streamliner Hollow Body Single-Cut is an affordable tribute to the past with an eye towards the future.
