Product details
Inspired by the historic "Rex" line of instruments offered by mail–order catalogues 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 comfortable and compact concert body shape and a modest 24.75" scale length, the Jim Dandy™ Concert strikes the perfect sweet–spot of versatile tone and approachable playability for a wide variety of musical settings.
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"–shaped neck presents an inviting feel for hours of old–timey inspiration. 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™ Concert is a ramblin' companion for newbies and old–timers alike.
