Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays guide you along the fingerboard with classic Gretsch style. Overall, the fingerboard is designed for speed, comfort and playability no matter your style.
Broad'Tron BT-3S Humbucking Pickups Provide a Bold, Rich Tone
At the heart of the Streamliner Center Block Jr. are its Broad'Tron BT-3S humbucking pickups. These pickups deliver a bold, rich tone, with plenty of warmth and growl. You'll love the articulation and clarity, especially when playing with overdrive or distortion. The pickups are also balanced so you can switch between neck and bridge pickups seamlessly. Whether you want to play bluesy solo lines or crunch through heavy rock riffs, the Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups have you covered.
Master Volume, Master Tone and Individual Pickup Volume Controls for Tonal Flexibility
The control layout provides a variety of tone-shaping options. Master volume and tone knobs give you overall control of output and EQ. Individual pickup volume knobs allow you to blend the bridge and neck pickups to craft your ideal tone. Want more treble bite? Turn up the bridge volume. Need some warm, round lows? Dial in the neck pickup. The push/pull coil-splitting on the master volume knob takes this versatility even further, giving you snappy single-coil tones at the flip of a switch.
Anchored Adjusto-Matic Bridge and Bigsby B50 Vibrato Tailpiece Add Expressiveness
For rock-solid tuning stability, the Streamliner Center Block Jr. features an Anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge. It keeps the strings secure and in tune, even with aggressive playing. The Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece adds expressive, shimmering pitch effects. From subtle warbling embellishments to dive-bomb swoops, the Bigsby opens up new dimensions of tone. Pair it with overdrive for soaring lead lines full of personality.
