Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Village Amber, the G2655 Streamliner Center Block Jr. is a compact double-cut electric with a laminated maple body, arched laminated maple top, and set nato neck. Two Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers feed a three-way selector, individual volume controls, master tone, and push/pull coil split at the master volume. In practice, that lets you choose full humbucker or single-coil operation from the guitar. The V-Stoptail and Adjusto-Matic bridge provide the fixed hardware arrangement, while the 12-inch-radius laurel fingerboard has 22 frets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Live or studio guitar parts requiring a choice between humbucker and single-coil pickup operation.

- Sessions involving separate pickup-level adjustments alongside a master tone control.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
