Gretsch Ampli-Sonic G9240 Resonator Guitar | Elderly Instruments

[@davidbyers7246]

I have played one of these a number of times in a music shop I travel. Each time thinking, “I must buy this it is fantastic” (and I own a National). So before going there tomorrow I contact them and wouldn’t you know it, they have sold it. But I will track down another. This is one of the best wooden bodied resonator guitars I have ever played and at such an amazingly good price.

I have one and for the money they are just great resonators.

Just bought one yesterday and love it! Glad to come across this video with such good things to say about it. Thanks for uploading guys! :)

Great instrument. Even louder than some of the others (amplisonic cone really knocks) and pretty complex in sound with or without slide. Especcially manouche style swing (hot club style) is great on that. Relly like it!

[@JanHaasler]

I totally agree (with WysteriaGuitar). I play mine more often zhan the high-end model I have.
Great guitar, especially for the money. Best guitar I ever had (easy to travel with...)! Nice playing in the video!

GREAT PLAYING AND IT'SA GREAT GUITAR...........

[@reckonimokie123]

I just got one. Is the action supposed to be high at the 7-9th frets due to biscuit cone?

[@LindaMcRae42]

Do you know the difference between the G9240 and the G9241?

[@davidmacleod9313]

Can that V neck be shaved down? I do not like V’s …they really hurt my thumb.

[@ashthegreat1]

Where are they made?

[@underakillingmoon]

China

[@underakillingmoon]

Am I insane or this 450$ resonator guitar sounds as good as those which are twice the price?

[@Dead_Solid_Irish]

I have a gretsch honey dipper and boxcar, both made in China, both are great guitars. Their reso guitars are hard to beat for the $$
