Gretsch Jim Dandy Dreadnought 'Frontier Stain' Acoustic Guitar

The Gretsch Jim Dandy Dreadnought 'Frontier Stain' offers a classic look and feel, drawing inspiration from the iconic Gretsch Rex line of the '30s, '40s and '50s. The smaller, slope-shoulder dreadnought shape ensures a comfortable playing experience, and the warm Frontier Stain finish gives it an old-time charm that resonates through every strum.

Built with a laminated sapele body and X-bracing, the Jim Dandy Dreadnought produces a strong, clear tone with exceptional projection for its size. Vintage-style details such as the "G" graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling and white pearloid dot inlays add nostalgic flair, ideal for folk, country and roots players.
