Description
Ukuleles aren’t known for cutting through a room, but the G9112 breaks that mold. Gretsch built this concert-size resonator around a 6″ “biscuit” cone, giving it a bright, punchy, unmistakably metallic voice that holds its own next to banjos, dobros, and full acoustic ensembles. It’s a fun novelty at first glance, but the tone is serious business.
- Mahogany top, back, and sides for a warm foundation under that resonator snap
- One-piece mahogany neck with a medium “U” profile and bone nut
- Rosewood fingerboard, 16 frets (12 to the body), mother-of-pearl snowflake inlays
- Rosewood biscuit bridge with maple saddle sitting atop the resonator cone
- 15″ scale length, 1.375″ nut width u2013 easy in the hand for players coming from standard ukes
- Grover 9B Sta-Tite geared tuners for tuning stability that friction pegs can’t match
- Aquila Nylgut strings strung from the factory
- Open-pore semi-gloss finish and a vintage-style 1920s Gretsch 2×2 headstock
- Mini f-holes let the resonator breathe and add a touch of old-school style
It ships with a deluxe fitted gig bag, so it’s ready to travel to porch jams, open mics, or wherever you need a uke that can actually be heard. Whether you’re chasing a Hawaiian-meets-Delta sound or just want something different than the usual laminate uke, the G9112 delivers a genuinely distinctive instrument at a fair price.
