The Gretsch G9520E GIN RICKEY electroacoustic guitar from the Roots Collection series is based on the "Rex" parlor concept from the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. It reliably transports you back to the days when the tones of the first Gretsch guitar models were a natural accompaniment in smoke-filled bars and cabarets.
The instrument's layered body is made of linden. A walnut fingerboard with eighteen frets is glued to a nato neck attached to the body at the twelfth fret. The good resonance of the body is supported by traditional X ribbing, while orientation on the fingerboard surface is facilitated by positional dots made of imitation mother-of-pearl.
A magnetic pickup installed in the guitar's soundhole offers a simple voicing option. Stable tuning is ensured by the string attachment via the zero fret and the compensated synthetic bone saddle in the company's 1950s vintage design open mechanics and walnut fingerboard. The guitar's stylish look is accentuated by a Smokestack Black finish, Aged White body and pickguard binding, a rosette composed of gold and white rings, and nickel hardware.
