Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Gretsch's G9210 Boxcar is a natural-finish square-neck resonator guitar aimed at bluegrass use. A mahogany body and neck frame the traditional-style F holes, while the Ampli-Sonic cone provides the instrument's resonator voice. That cone is hand-spun in Eastern Europe from nearly 99-percent pure aluminum and is described as delivering strong volume and projection. The square-neck format distinguishes it from Gretsch's round-neck resonator option, which is intended for blues-based music. A case is sold separately.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bluegrass-focused playing that calls for a square-neck resonator guitar.
- Acoustic parts where the Ampli-Sonic cone's volume and projection are useful.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players looking for Gretsch's round-neck option intended for blues-based music.
