Gretsch Roots Collection G9550 New Yorker Archtop Acoustic Guitar, 19 (14 to Body) Frets, Rosewood Fretboard, Vintage V Neck, Antique Burst

Don't see a lot of acoustic archtops around anymore, do you? But if you were living back in the 1950s, guitars like the Gretsch G9550 New Yorker Archtop would have been all the rage. Lightweight and easy to play, the original Gretsch New Yorker was one of the acoustic guitars that paved the way for the jazz boxes that followed in its wake.

An arched back and sides made of laminated maple give the G9550 New Yorker Archtop a bright and lively tone and a minimally braced solid spruce top sings out clearly with each note. If you dig a slightly chunkier neck that lives somewhere between electric and acoustic styles, then you'll really enjoy the feel of the G9550 New Yorker Archtop's vintage V-shaped carve. Whether you're strumming on the couch or playing in the studio, you'll love the sound, feel and vibe of this Gretsch G9550 New Yorker Archtop.
