Overview

The G5655T Electromatic gives you the pure and powerful Gretsch sound.

Live and loud, Electromatic Center Block Jr. guitars are designed for that pure and powerful Gretsch sound at high volume. Painstakingly crafted with essential Gretsch sound, style and playability, these models deliver the fearless and electrifying authenticity that has set Gretsch apart for decades.

The Gretsch G5655T Electromatic Center Block Jr. single-cut with Bigsby features a smaller-sized body with a chambered spruce center block for dynamic resonance, high gain power and lightweight comfort. A lower-set maple neck offers effortless access and performance, while the 12"-radius laurel fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays offers excellent playability.

Its dual Black Top Broad’Tron humbucking pickups deliver bold, dynamic and articulate tone with enhanced sonic punch. The combination of individual pickup volume controls, master tone and master volume with treble bleed circuit allows you to flexibly harness this instrument’s sonic power.

Boasting stage-stealing style, the G5655T comes with a silver pickguard and nickel hardware, including the Bigsby B70 vibrato tailpiece, anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge and G-arrow knobs.
