HIGHLIGHTS:

Arched Maple Hollow Body

The G2420 Streamliner Hollow Body Single-Cut with Chromatic II tailpiece features a fully hollow arched maple body with parallel tone bars for rich fullness, deep resonance and “big-body sound.”

All-New Broad’Tron BT-3S Pickups

The G2420 features our new Broad’Tron BT-3S pickups. Utilizing a combination of Alnico 5 and Alnico 2 magnets, the new BT-3S pickups provide stronger mids, tight but full lows, and smooth clear highs that retain a smooth and musical presence.

Versatile Controls with Coil-Splitting

The Streamliner’s sonic power is harnessed and shaped by the traditional control layout – neck and bridge pickup volume controls, a master tone control, master volume control and three-way pickup switching.

The addition of a push/pull pot on the master volume control allows coil-splitting to provide useful single coil sounds, adding another layer of tonal versatility to an already strong sonic arsenal.
