Overview
Bending pitch with a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece is the signature of this Streamliner, which pairs a maple hollow body with two humbuckers. A push-pull circuit splits the coils, and Gretsch neoclassical inlays run along the fingerboard.
The coil split and shaping controls widen the tonal range from one guitar, and the soft C neck eases playing. The Bigsby and body shape make restringing and carrying more involved than on a plain guitar.
Who it's for
Rock, roots and indie players who like old-school vibrato and hollowbody tone will find the features suited. Players who prefer quick restringing or a compact guitar should look at a body without a Bigsby.
Pros and cons
- Bigsby vibrato for pitch bending
- Push-pull coil-splitting circuit
- Soft C neck profile
- Laurel fretboard with neoclassical inlays
- Heavy and large body
- Bigsby slows string changes
- Single warranty period only
Performance notes
Humbucking pickups give hum-free tone, and splitting them adds a thinner voice. The Bigsby moves the strings through a spring-loaded arm for gentle pitch changes.
