Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Gretsch Jim Dandy Concert 'Frontier Stain' Acoustic Guitar is a modern tribute to the historic "Rex" line of instruments offered through mail-order catalogs in the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. This model captures the charm and spirit of those early Gretsch flat-top guitars with superior playability and tone. 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"-shape 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.
