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 superior playability and
best-in-class-tone to boot
Featuring a specially-designed slope shoulder body shape and a modest 24.75“
scale length, the Jim Dandy™ Deltoluxe™ Dreadnought offers a refreshingly
comfortable and compact form factor without sacrificing the volume, projection
and bass response for which dreadnought guitars are so revered.
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, tortoiseshell binding and “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 Dreadnought is a ramblin’ companion for newbies and
old-timers alike.
