Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr. Double-Cut Electric Guitar, Midnight Sapphire

Apparently this is a discontinued finish for the G2655 lineup, so it was offered as a great price through Adorama. I found the sunburst finish to be nice, (and not quite as "orange" as the online photos suggest). And, save for a very minor paint "flaw" around one of the f holes (nothing to warrant returning) overall very clean.The neck is very comfortable, and straight, and access to the lower frets is very good. The nato fretboard is not as nice as most rosewood fretboards I've seen, but serviceable. I adjusted the string height down to about where my Epiphone guitar's height and it plays very well. The pickups are not quite as "rich" as I prefer, but not too bad for a guitar that was selling for under $400. The volume and tone controls allow for a wide range of variation, and the push/pull master volume control's coil-splitting feature might appeal to others. Overall, a very well made and pleasing guitar in its pricer range.

The guitar is built solid and finish is flawless, the only complaint is that the pickups are not Gretsch sounding.

I love this guitar. It was set up well enough when I got it that I haven't done anything but play it.

This guitar is really nice. Although made in Indonesia they did a great job creating this Gretsch. Plays great and looks great. I got this guitar for a great price that I couldn't pass it up.

Great guitar at a great price! Arrived quickly and packaged great. Color is fantastic and fit / finish was flawless. Great job by Gretsch and Adorama. See my full review and demo on my YouTube channel. https://youtu.be/_CtSQ7YRHtk?si=kPyFcY5gkUMM8L3l

Great guitar, but there is a defect in the binding that was a disappointment. Rest of the guitar looks great. Plays great as well. Size was not as large as I thought, but perfect for playing. Slightly larger than my les Paul.

Very nice looking guitar and was shipped quick and arrived fast. The only thing is, there were some issues with the electronics being defective. The return process was simple and easy to accomplish. This is does not take away from this company's quality and service. They were great making me feel the served me as a customer. Thanks

Awesome guitar. Guitar was securely packed and shipped quickly. Great semi hollow body for the money. Pick ups have the familiar Gretsch sound. Fit and finish is perfect. No defects at all. Great small body semi hollow

I bought this Gretsch 2655 just a few weeks after I purchased its twin with P90 pickups. In both instances, I had the same pleasant buying experience - super fast m, efficient and effective delivery from Adorama, along with an outstanding guitar design from Gretsch. My complements to both Gretsch and Adorama - awesome job!!!
