General

Renowned brand Gretsch really caters to the needs of its customers. All that was missing from its popular and affordable Gretsch Guitars Bluegrass series were some truly professional models. By popular demand, Gretsch added a number of these to the series, including the Gretsch G9451 Dixie Deluxe. This 5-string open-back banjo sports a number of luxury features at an amazing price/quality ratio, making it ideal for serious bluegrass musicians.

The Dixie Deluxe with Whyte Laydie tone ring

The Gretsch Dixie Deluxe is a luxury edition of the classic Gretsch Dixie from the 1950s. The Dixie Deluxe is equipped with a Whyte Laydie tone ring that ensures an old-fashioned, rich and exceptionally direct banjo sound, a maple body, a rugged three-piece neck and a Remo Renaissance resonant head. A good-looking classic headstock, a luxury gloss finish, tortoise shell bindings and a comfortable Vega-style armrest complete the great look of this open-back banjo.

Wrote the following about Gretsch G9451 Dixie Deluxe 5-String Open Back banjo

Ik heb deze banjo bij de Bax shop in Goes aangeschaft. Was al een tijd op zoek naar een kwaliteitsbanjo.

Deze banjo heeft een prachtige warme sound, is goed te stemmen en ziet er ook nog eens prachtig uit. Ik heb deze vergeleken met de Gretsch Broadkaster Supreme banjo. Ook deze heeft een hele mooie klank. Een onmogelijke keuze tussen deze twee banjo's.
Het is net wat je smaak is, ze zijn allebei erg mooi.

Kort samengevat, een mooie betaalbare professionele banjo.
