The Gretsch Jim Dandy Dreadnought 'Rex Burst' Acoustic Guitar brings the rich history of Gretsch's 1930s, '40s, and '50s-era Rex series into the modern era. Designed with a vintage-inspired slope shoulder body shape and a 24.75" scale length, this guitar is both compact and comfortable, offering great volume and projection. Its X-braced body is made from select laminate tonewoods, providing a perfect balance of vintage sound and durability. Whether strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies, the Jim Dandy delivers a warm, resonant tone with excellent bass response.
A nod to its roots, the Jim Dandy features period-correct details, including a vintage-style pinned bridge, a "G"-graphic pickguard, and painted pinstripe purfling. The guitar is also equipped with open-gear tuning machines, oversized dot fingerboard inlays, and a classic walnut fingerboard, which enhances both playability and aesthetic appeal. This guitar is a tribute to the past while offering modern playability, making it an ideal choice for players seeking that vintage vibe with contemporary comfort.
