Gretsch have a proud heritage in guitar making and the resonator is among the earliest examples of their craftsmanship that made them famous. The G9200 retains the vintage charm that made slide guitar so poular and a bright, characterful tone you are sure to love.
Here's what Gretsch have to say about the G9200
The miracle of volume! With its mahogany "long-body" design and comfortable soft-"V" neck, this faithful reissue of the 1930s classic sounds and plays like a million bucks. The vital feature of all Gretsch resonator guitars is the all-new Gretsch "Ampli-Sonic" diaphragm (resonator cone), which is hand-spun in Eastern Europe from nearly 99 percent pure aluminium and yields an impressive quality and volume of tone.
