Compact, vintage-inspired, and full of character, the Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlor Acoustic captures the charm of old-school mail-order guitars that helped define early American music. With its small parlor-size body, this guitar is incredibly comfortable to hold—perfect for casual playing, songwriting, or travel. The basswood body delivers a crisp, articulate voice with surprising projection, while the nato neck and walnut 20-fret fingerboard provide smooth playability. Finished in the distinctive Rex Burst with open-gear tuners, a white pickguard, and classic Gretsch headstock styling, the Jim Dandy looks like a well-loved vintage guitar right out of the box.
Why You’ll Love It:
• Parlor body is lightweight, portable, and perfect for smaller players or relaxed practice
• Bright, focused tone great for fingerpicking or vocal accompaniment
• Vintage design with Rex Burst finish, white pickguard, and open-gear tuners for retro charm
• A fun, no-pressure acoustic guitar that’s perfect for home, travel, or beginner players
• Classic Gretsch vibe at an affordable price point
Please note: this instrument is stamped "used" on the back of the headstock and was given a new serial number by a manufacturer-authorized refurbisher. It may have at one time been deemed to have a cosmetic imperfection or to need a repair. It has now been expertly repaired, plays like new and shows little wear.
