Inspired by the historic ‘Rex’ line of instruments offered by mail-order catalog in the 1930s, ‘40s and ’50s, Jim Dandy models embody the charm and spirit of those early Gretsch flat-top guitars with the superior playability and best-in-class tone that their namesake suggests. Featuring a petite and portable parlor body shape and a short 24-inch scale length, the Jim Dandy 6-String Deltoluxe Parlor Acoustic Guitar punches above its weight with a distinct tonal clarity and throaty midrange for which parlor guitars are so beloved. The X-braced body is crafted with select lightweight laminate tonewoods for an optimal balance of woody vintage tone and reliable durability, while the ‘C’shape neck presents an inviting feel for hours of old-timey inspiration. The onboard Gretsch Deltoluxe magnetic soundhole pickup produces versatile electrified acoustic tone, providing added utility for live performance, recording, and effects pedals. Period-correct details such as a vintage-style pinned bridge, ‘G’graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling, 3-on-a-plate open-gear tuning machines and oversized dot fingerboard inlays combine for a nostalgic personality destined for any barnburner or jamboree. Well suited for everything from bluesy porch pickin’ to speakeasy swingin’, the Gretsch Jim Dandy Deltoluxe Parlor is a ramblin’ companion for newbies and old-timers alike. This 6-string guitar body top, back and sides is laminated sapele. It also has a semi-gloss finish, gold and white rings rosette. The guitar has 18 vintage frets (12 to Body).
