Gretsch® G9520E Gin Rickey ™ 24” Acoustic/Electric Guitar with Soundhole Pickup |Basswood Body | Walnut Fingerboard |Colour Smokestack Black | Non Cutaway

The G9520E Gin Rickey Acoustic/Electric with Deltoluxe Soundhole Pickup is a genuine gone finger-zinger classic that can be used for bluesy porch pickin' or speakeasy swingin'.

 Inspired by the Gretsch® Rex parlor guitars of old, the G. Rickey whisks you back to the halcyon days when the earliest Gretsch guitars fueled many a barrelhouse barn burner.

 It has an X-braced basswood body with a powerfully resonant voice, a "C"-profile nato neck that joins the body at the 12th fret, a smooth walnut fingerboard with 18 vintage-style frets and pearloid dot inlays, a top-load walnut bridge with a compensated synthetic bone saddle for even intonation all the way down the neck, and more. It is also well-built. The Gretsch Deltoluxe acoustic magnetic soundhole pickup, which is the coolest of the cool, produces a voice that is clear and deep.

About Gretsch

The Gretsch company was founded in Brooklyn, New York way back in 1883 before Fender or Gibson had started making instruments. Gretsch guitars are renowned for their excellent playability, high quality and unmistakable Gretsch sound. Don't let the iconic hollow body guitars fool you... These aren't just for Jazz and blues players. John Frusciante famously played a Gretsch White Falcon with the Red Hot Chilli Peppers (along with plenty more awesome guitars!)
