Quick Product Summary

The Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. Case in Black is the purpose-designed hardshell case for compatible G2655 and G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. guitars.

Its rigid construction provides a considerably higher level of protection than a standard soft gig bag, making it a strong choice for players regularly transporting their guitar to rehearsals, lessons, recording sessions or gigs.

Inside, the guitar is supported by a black plush-lined interior, while a central accessory compartment gives you convenient storage for smaller essentials such as strings, picks, tuners and a capo.

Finished with chrome-plated latches and hardware plus a classic silver Gretsch logo, this is the straightforward factory-style case for players who want reliable protection and a proper fit for their compact Streamliner centre-block guitar.

Why Choose The Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Case?

Designed Specifically For The Center Block Jr. Body

The compact G2655 body is wider and deeper than many conventional solid-body guitars, so a generic electric guitar case is not always the best solution.

This case is shaped specifically for compatible Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr. guitars, providing a more appropriate fit and support than trying to adapt a standard single-cut or solid-body case.

Suitable For Bigsby-Equipped Models

The case accommodates the G2655T with Bigsby vibrato, giving the hardware the necessary clearance when the guitar is stored correctly inside.

It also works with compatible fixed-tail G2655 models, making it the natural case option across the Center Block Jr. Streamliner platform.

Hardshell Protection

A rigid case provides greater resistance to knocks, impacts and pressure than a padded gig bag.

This becomes particularly useful when your guitar is travelling alongside amplifiers, pedalboards, stands and other equipment, or when it is stored in an environment where accidental knocks are more likely.

Plush-Lined Interior

The black plush interior cushions the guitar and helps protect its finish while it is stored or transported.

The shaped interior also helps keep the instrument properly positioned rather than allowing it to move freely inside an oversized universal case.

Central Accessory Compartment

The internal storage compartment gives you somewhere convenient to keep smaller accessories such as:

  • Spare strings

  • Picks

  • Clip-on tuner

  • Capo

  • String winder

  • Cleaning cloth

  • Small maintenance accessories

Keeping these items in a separate compartment also prevents loose accessories from moving around against the guitar.

Which Guitars Fit The Gretsch G2655T Case?

The case is designed for compatible models in the Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr. family, including:

  • Gretsch G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr.

  • Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. with Bigsby

  • Compatible left-handed G2655 Streamliner models

It is intended for guitars both with and without Bigsby vibrato systems.

Other Gretsch models use different body widths, depths and shapes, so this case should not automatically be assumed to fit larger G2622 models, full hollow-body guitars or Jet-style instruments.

If you're unsure about compatibility with your exact Gretsch model, speak to our team before ordering and we'll help identify the correct case.

Hardshell Case vs Gig Bag: Which Should You Choose?

A padded gig bag is generally lighter and easier to carry, particularly if you frequently walk to lessons or rehearsals.

The G2655T hardshell case is the better choice when physical protection is the priority. Its rigid construction offers greater resistance to impacts and pressure from surrounding equipment, making it more reassuring for regular gigging, car travel and long-term storage.

For a semi-hollow or centre-block guitar, a correctly fitted case is especially worthwhile because the instrument has a larger and differently shaped body than a conventional solid-body electric.

Fair Deal Music Verdict

★★★★★ 5/5

The Gretsch G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. Case is the sensible choice for anyone who owns a compatible G2655 and wants substantially more protection than a standard gig bag.

Its biggest advantage is that it is designed around the unusual proportions of the Center Block Jr. body rather than forcing the guitar into a generic electric guitar case.

The Bigsby compatibility, plush interior and useful accessory compartment make it a practical option for both everyday storage and regular transport.

Best suited for: G2655 and G2655T Streamliner owners wanting fitted hardshell protection.

Customers usually upgrade from: Generic electric guitar gig bags or universal cases.

Most commonly paired with: Gretsch G2655 and G2655T Streamliner Center Block Jr. guitars.

Our tip: If you're regularly carrying your G2655T alongside amplifiers and other equipment, the additional structure of a proper hardshell case is well worth having.

Showroom feedback: Compact semi-hollow guitars can be surprisingly awkward to match with universal cases. Choosing the dedicated G2655T case removes much of the uncertainty around fit.
