Gretsch G9201 Honey Dipper Resonator 2014 Acoustic Guitar
Here for sale we have a Gretsch G9201 Honey Dipper Resonator Acoustic Guitar in Weathered "Pump House Roof" finish. Made in China in 2014, this metal-bodied guitar consists of a Bell Brass body with a Gretsch Ampli-Sonic Biscuit Resonator Cone, a Mahogany neck, and a 19-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include a Biscuit bridge, Chrome hardware, Grover Sta-Tite Die-Cast tuners, and a Weathered Trapeze Tailpiece. The Mahogany neck plays well, with an unmistakable Medium "V" neck profile. This profile is well suited to a wide range of playing styles and techniques. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its traditional 15.75" radius is practical for both chordal and melodic playing styles. The smooth lines of the body are comfortable in the arms, with a reassuring weight to the body which provides a sense of dependability and substance to the playing experience. The tone of the G9201 Honey Dipper is unmistakably 'resonator', delivering those early blues sounds that we know and love. There is plenty of dynamic range on offer, rewarding gentle picking with a soft and intimate tone, whilst strumming more firmly delivers plenty of power to help you be heard over the rest of the band. The instrument's voice really shines through when playing delta blues styles with a slide, offering an authentic playing experience and tone, with powerful low end and singing mids. The voice is full-bodied, offering a wide and dynamic tonal range which is just as at home as a solo instrument as it is as part of an ensemble.

Our ID: 1010725113310 Weight: 8.45lbs Serial: 311643515 Aesthetic Condition: Headstock: Overall excellent condition, it is difficult to discern any markings to the headstock. The headstock is stamped USED and the serial partially obscured, this is a factory process when a guitar is returned. Neck: Overall very good condition, the fingerboard demonstrates very light scratching across the entire register which cannot be felt under the string. Body: Overall very good condition, some tarnishing is apparent to the common contact points of the body. Moderate buckle rash is apparent to the rear face. Condition of Frets: The frets demonstrate light signs of use, not affecting playability. There is considerable material remaining for future fret work. Current Set Up: Truss Rod: Fully functional. Truss rod tool (4mm hex) not included. Hardware: Fully functional with light signs of wear. The cone has a slight slant, causing the treble side of the biscuit to sit 1mm lower than the bass side. It is apparent the slots have been re-cut to accommodate this. Structural: The neck is over-set, meaning the action is very low for this style of guitar. Coincidentally, this has created a set-up much more accessible to fingerstyle and fretted playing vs the traditional use of a slide. Height of the string from the 12th Fret-Treble 1.5mm - Bass 2mm Please be aware that the action on a guitar may move slightly in transit and this measurement is the current height.
