Description

Painstakingly crafted by Gretsch with essential sound, style, and playability, this model delivers electrifying authenticity.

Dual Black Top Broad'TronTM Pickups Provide Articulate Tone
The G5655TG's dual Black Top Broad'Tron humbucking pickups deliver bold, dynamic, and articulate tone with enhanced sonic punch. With a 3-position toggle switch, you can choose between the bridge pickup, bridge and neck pickups together, or the neck pickup alone for a range of tones from bright and cutting to warm and rounded.
Playability and Style in One Package
Offering excellent playability, the G5655TG has a 12" radius laurel fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and NeoClassic thumbnail inlays. This guitar boasts stage-stealing style with a stunning Azure Metallic finish and gleaming gold hardware, including the Bigsby B70 vibrato tailpiece, anchored Adjusto-MaticTM bridge, and G-arrow knobs.
Familiar Feel, Iconic Sound
With a thinner U-shaped neck profile, the G5655TG has a familiar feel for players accustomed to solid-body electrics. However, its hollowbody design and chambered spruce center block produce the iconic resonant Gretsch tone. Combining the best of both worlds, this model is ideal for players seeking a bold, dynamic sound in a comfortable, lightweight form.
Premium Appointments and Versatile Tonal Options
Premium appointments like the gold plexi pickguard, die-cast tuners, and gold hardware provide visual flair and durability. Master volume and tone controls enable you to fine-tune your tone, while the included gig bag protects your investment. The Gretsch Guitars G5655TG offers versatile tonal options, iconic style, and high-performance functionality.
