Gretsch G9555 New Yorker Archtop with Pickup

General

In Gretsch's extensive history, the New Yorker Archtop plays a prominent part. With the introduction of the acoustic G9550 and the electro-acoustic G9555, the New Yorker is back in full effect. The instrument features a typical Grand Auditorium body with a beautifully arched top, ensuring a sound that is ideal for music genres such as jazz, blues and country. Various vintage-style details, including a tortoise-shell pickguard, a trapeze-style tailpiece, a Vintage Sunburst finish and elegant f-shaped sound holes, complete the fantastic look of the Archtop.

The excellent sound of the G9555

Thanks to the combination of maple (with its typically feisty sound characteristics) and a solid top with excellent resonating qualities, the Gretsch New Yorker Archtop produces a clear, powerful tone. For a stable tuning, the electro-acoustic western guitar is equipped with reliable Grover Sta-Tite tuners, and a Custom Wound Vintage-Style single-coil pickup makes the instrument even more versatile, In short, this Gretsch combines classic looks with a vintage sound, and is available for a remarkably attractive price.
