DESCRIPTION
Live and loud, Gretsch Electromatic Center Block Jr. guitars are built to deliver that pure, powerful Gretsch sound at high volume. The G5655TQM Center Block Jr. Single-Cut with Bigsby pairs a smaller-sized 14" body with a stunning quilted maple top, back and sides, plus a chambered spruce center block that keeps things resonant and dynamic while taming feedback when you push the gain.
The lower-set maple neck gives you easy access up the neck, and the 12"-radius laurel fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid Neo-Classic thumbnail inlays makes for smooth, comfortable playability. A Graph Tech NuBone nut and anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge keep tuning solid, even when you're leaning on the Bigsby-licensed B70 vibrato.
Dual Black Top Broad'Tron humbucking pickups supply bold, articulate tone with extra sonic punch. Individual pickup volume controls, master volume with treble bleed circuit and master tone give you plenty of ways to shape that power, while a 3-position toggle handles the pickup selection.
Painstakingly crafted with essential Gretsch sound, style and playability, these models deliver the fearless, electrifying authenticity that has set Gretsch apart for decades. Finished in gloss with aged white binding, nickel hardware and a gold pickguard, it's the sound of honor itself — play proud.
