This traditional acoustic instrument celebrates Gretsch's roots in American music
Part of their Roots collection, the G9121 gives you a chance to own one of Gretsch's earliest instruments. Everyone knows Gretsch electric guitars and drums, but did you know that they got their start in 1883 as a banjo company? It wasn't long before Gretsch was making mandolins, ukuleles, and eventually flat-top guitars, contributing to the very roots of American music. So when you pick up a Gretsch G9121, you're holding more than a great ukulele, you're holding a piece of American music history.

Tenor body offers you a rich voice and a comfortable feel
Perfect for a wide range of music, the Gretsch G9121 ukelel's tenor body and longer scale makes it one of the most comfortable ukes to play. Its deeper body also gives it excellent projection and richer undertones, making a fit perfectly with the sound of most acoustic guitars. If you're new to this fun and expressive instrument, then the G9121 is an excellent choice for you.
