General

These days, you can get a resonator in virtually any price range. If you're serious about playing this remarkable instrument, however, why not invest in a quality model like the Gretsch Honey Dipper? For a relatively reasonable price, you'll get an instrument you won't easily outgrow! As you familiarise yourself with your resonator more and more, the Gretsch Honey Dipper Round Neck will gradually reveal all its secrets. Thanks to a Gretsch 'Ampli-Sonic' resonator cone, made of 99% pure aluminium, you're treated to an impressive sound with plenty of volume, which is indispensable when you try your hand at music styles like authentic Delta blues. This Honey Dipper makes a great lap steel guitar, but you can also play it standing up, as it's equipped with a round neck. Adorned with a Weathered Bell Bronze finish, this resonator guitar is just as easy on the eyes as it is on the ears.

The history of the resonator

Before the electric guitar made its first appearance, guitar builders experimented with various ways of boosting guitar sound. As ensembles and orchestras grew in size, it became increasingly hard for guitarists to make themselves heard, after all. One of the results of these experiments was the resonator guitar, an instrument that amplifies sound by means of one or more (metal) cones, placed inside the body. Not only did these resonator guitars produce a louder volume, they also delivered a characteristic sound that became quite popular. No wonder that, even after the electric guitar became a mainstream instrument, resonators are still often used for traditional music genres. With their Honey Dippers, Gretsch honours the great resonator tradition!

Gretsch G9202 Honey Dipper Special Round Neck

Mooie resonator gitaar van Gretsch voor een hele schappelijke prijs.
In Nederland zijn deze gitaren onbekend bij de meeste mensen. Deze gitaar is geproduceerd in China. Vandaar de prijs.

Ik heb deze gitaar omgebouwd. Ik ben zelf linkshandig. Resonator gitaren zijn anders dan veel mensen, ook personeel van Bax, spiegelbeeldig gebouwd. Archtop en Flattop zijn dit niet, deze hebben een heel andere opbouw en kunnen niet linkshandig gemaakt worden.

Het aanpassen van de gitaar is ongeveer een half uur werk. Gitaarsnaren ontspannen. De metalen plaat boven de brug losschroeven, 4 schroeven. Het staartstuk verwijden, dit zijn vier iets langere schroeven. Het staartstuk is van verchroomd messing en de 3 kleinste gaten zijn eenvoudig iets groter uit te boren.
De brug zit op de aluminium bovenste cone en kan gewoon gedraaid worden in de gitaar zodat de brug weer goed is. Vervolgens de topkam iets aangepast met een sleutelvijl. en snaren omgezet.
de gitaar gestemd in open D. DADF#AD.

Top instument met het juiste geluid van Gretsch. Speelt heerlijk over de hele hals en is geweldig voor Blues, Bluegrass en slideguitar.
Voor iedere gitarist die meer volume wil maar niet van stroom afhankelijk wil zijn een aanrader.
