Gretsch G2420T Streamliner Hollow Body Electric Guitar Fairlane Blue

Streamliner Hollow Body Guitar

The Gretsch G2420T is a 6-string electric guitar built for right-handed players who want the rich resonance of a fully hollow arched maple body. Its Broad'Tron BT-3S humbucking pickups deliver strong mids, tight lows and smooth highs with a musical presence. The laurel fingerboard carries 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid Neo Classic thumbnail inlays for comfortable playability. A Bigsby vibrato tailpiece completes the classic Gretsch aesthetic and function.

Upgrade from solid-body instruments

This hollow-body model replaces a solid-body guitar when you need deeper acoustic resonance and the open, airy character that only a fully hollow arched maple construction provides. The jump is worth it for players moving into jazz, rockabilly or roots styles where big-body sound and dynamic response matter more than high-gain compression. The Broad'Tron BT-3S pickups keep articulation clear even at volume, so the transition does not sacrifice note definition.

Build around a Bigsby-equipped hollow body

The guitar needs an amplifier that handles the wide dynamic range of hollow-body pickups without feeding back at stage levels. Its traditional control layout with individual volume and tone controls per pickup lets you shape sounds at the instrument rather than relying on pedal switching. The fixed bridge and Bigsby combination frees the top to vibrate fully while still offering expressive pitch manipulation. Players who require a hardtail bridge or active electronics should look elsewhere.
