Key Features & Overview
The G5655TG Electromatic Center Block Jr. is designed for players looking for that legendary, full-throttle Gretsch sound but in a smaller, more manageable package.
-
Compact Center Block Jr. Body: Features a slightly smaller body that is incredibly comfortable to play, whether standing or sitting. A chambered spruce center block runs down the middle of the body, minimizing unwanted feedback at high volumes while keeping the guitar lightweight and resonant.
-
Black Top Broad'Tron™ Pickups: Equipped with dual Broad'Tron humbucking pickups that deliver dynamic, punchy highs with robust, guttural lows. It perfectly captures that classic "Gretsch growl" while handling modern overdrive and high-gain tones beautifully.
-
Premium Gold Hardware & Bigsby B70: The Cadillac Green finish is perfectly accented by gleaming gold hardware, including a gold plexi pickguard and an anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge paired with a licensed Bigsby B70 vibrato tailpiece for smooth, expressive pitch bends.
-
Fast, Comfortable Playability: A thin "U"-shaped maple neck paired with a 12”-radius laurel fingerboard and 22 medium jumbo frets ensures effortless chording and fast lead work.
