General

The Gretsch G9212 Honey Dipper Special Square-Neck resonator guitar is an exceptional instrument. Modelled after the popular G9201 Honey Dipper, it features a number of remarkable characteristics, including a square neck, white fingerboard bindings, a decorative headstock graphic with a great vintage look and a striking, weathered Delta Blue finish.

The square neck of the G9212

Resonator guitars (also called dobros by some), are equipped with either a round or a square neck. Square-neck models are meant for guitarists that prefer sitting down while they're playing, keeping the resonator flat on their lap, as this playing style often requires alternative open tunings that create too much tension for round necks, which are less rugged.

The sound of the resonator

The typically pervasive sound of the resonator, often heard in blues and bluegrass music, is produced by a special resonator cone. Like the rest of the Gretsch resonator family, the G9212 is equipped with an Ampli-Sonic diaphragm, designed by Gretsch itself, which ensures a high-quality sound and a powerful volume. This unique G9212 Honey Dipper Special Square-Neck Resonator is only available in a limited number. Don't miss out on this chance and order yours now!

Guitarists who are serious about playing the resonator guitar have always set great store by the Gretsch Honey Dipper Specials. These fantastic resonator instruments - which are available as round-neck models, but also come with square necks for lap steel fanatics - hardly leave any room for improvement, which is why Gretsch issues the occasional limited edition with a special finish.
