Introduced in 1951 and made through 1959, the Gretsch Electromatic, renamed the Streamliner in 1955, was a no-frills electric archtop that featured a Melita adjustable bridge, Gretsch "G" logo tailpiece, and DeArmond neck pickup. With shining finish and hardware alike, this example from 1956 comes in largely original condition save for a heel gap finish fill. A comfortable action makes for easy fretting and chording up and down the neck, and this Gretsch rings beautifully both plugged in and acoustically.
