Experience the timeless charm of the Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlour 'Rex Burst' Acoustic Guitar, inspired by the iconic "Rex" line of instruments found in mail-order catalogs of the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. The Jim Dandy™ models encapsulate the spirit of early Gretsch® flat-top guitars, combining superior playability with unmatched tone.

With its compact parlor body shape and a short 24" scale length, the Jim Dandy™ Parlor delivers exceptional tonal clarity and a resonant midrange, a signature characteristic of parlor guitars. The X-braced body is meticulously constructed using lightweight laminate tonewoods, ensuring a perfect blend of vintage warmth and long-lasting durability. The comfortable "C"-shape neck invites players to explore hours of old-time musical inspiration. Authentic vintage details like the pinned bridge, "G"-graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling, 3-on-a-plate open-gear tuning machines, and oversized dot fingerboard inlays add to its nostalgic personality, making it the perfect companion for any musical gathering.

Whether you're strumming blues on the porch or evoking the spirit of speakeasy swing, the Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlor in Rex Burst is your trusty partner, ready to inspire beginners and seasoned players alike.
