HIGHLIGHTS:
Maple Body with New Center Block Design
The G2655 Center Block Jr. offers a maple body with a modified center block for an ideal balance of sound and weight. This center block delivers full tones, improved sustain, and enhanced feedback rejection while providing a comfortable playing experience.
All-New Broad’Tron BT-3S Pickups
The G2655 features our new Broad’Tron BT-3S pickup set. Utilizing a combination of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets, the new BT-3S pickups provide stronger mids, tight but full lows, and smooth clear highs that retain a smooth and musical presence. The BT-3S delivers vibrant, detailed sound that is perfect for a variety of genres. Its unique combination of magnet types yields an impressive dynamic range and allows for an expansive tonal palette.
Versatile Controls with Coil-Splitting
The Streamliner’s sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layout—neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching.
The addition of a push/pull pot on the master volume control allows coil-splitting to provide useful single coil sounds, adding another layer of tonal versatility to an already strong sonic arsenal.
