Gretsch Jim Dandy Walnut Fingerboard

Inspired by the historic “Rex” line of instruments offered through mail-order catalogs in the 1930s, '40s, and '50s, Jim Dandy™ models capture the charm and spirit of those early Gretsch® flat-top guitars, offering superior playability and best-in-class tone.

With a petite and portable parlor body shape and a short 24" scale length, the Jim Dandy™ Parlor delivers distinct tonal clarity and a throaty midrange, hallmarks of beloved parlor guitars.

The X-braced body is crafted from select lightweight laminate tonewoods, providing an optimal balance of woody vintage tone and reliable durability. The “C”-shape neck offers an inviting feel for hours of 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, contribute to its nostalgic personality, perfect for any barnburner or jamboree.

Ideal for everything from bluesy porch pickin’ to speakeasy swingin’, the Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlor is a ramblin’ companion for both newcomers and seasoned players.
