public class Main {
  public static final void main(String[] args) {
    JFrame frame = new JFrame();

    JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel();
    JPanel buttonsPanel = new JPanel();
    frame.add(mainPanel);
    frame.add(buttonsPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

    String[] options = { "S", "G", "I","T" };

    JComboBox comboBox = new JComboBox(options);
