Gretsch G9221 Bobtail Steel Round-Neck A.E. Acoustic-Electric Resonator Guitar Gretsch

From the company that’s epitomized musical craftsmanship since its inception in 1883, the Gretsch G9221 Bobtail Steel Round-Neck resonator guitar carries the historic echoes of its predecessors, rendering a timeless tonality within its industrial-chic exterior. The guitar’s body, fashioned entirely from steel, gives it not just an avant-garde, weathered appearance, but also a distinctive timbre.

The neck, carved from sturdy mahogany, is coupled with a fingerboard of padauk, boasting a radius of 15.75″. This exotic timber not only offers durability but also enriches the overall tone of the instrument. Complemented by simplistic white dot inlays, navigating the 19 medium jumbo frets is quite the pleasant journey. The neck’s rounded profile ensures comfortable hand feel, even for those marathon jam sessions.

With a scale length of 25″, this resonator offers a perfect balance between tension and flexibility. The vintage-style open-back tuning machines aren’t just a throwback to yesteryears; they offer precision and stability in tuning. And speaking of precision, the bone nut, measuring at 1.75″, assures optimal string spacing and enhanced tonal clarity.

For those moments when the guitar needs to be amplified, the Fishman Nashville Resonator pickup is ready to take charge. Unobtrusive yet powerful, it captures the rich nuances of the resonator without the need for external controls. Aiding in sustain and tonal resonance, the weathered trapeze tailpiece stands steadfast.

The Gretsch G9221 Bobtail Steel Round-Neck is a harmonious blend of history, artistry, and science—a guitar that truly deserves to be experienced.
