Ampli-Sonic resonator cone
The guitar uses Gretsch’s handspun aluminum resonator diaphragm as its central resonator component.

Independent shopping perspective
Gretsch’s right-handed G9241 Alligator is a six-string, round-neck resonator guitar built in mahogany with a 19-fret, 25-inch scale layout. Its Ampli-Sonic resonator cone is handspun in Eastern Europe from nearly 99-percent pure aluminum, and the Fishman Nashville Biscuit-Style pickup brings amplification into the setup. It is voiced in the product’s design brief for chunk rhythm, fingerstyle, and bottleneck work, with a semi-gloss two-color sunburst finish.
