Inspired by the historic “Rex” line of guitars from the 1930s–1950s, the Gretsch® Jim Dandy™ Concert embodies the charm, character, and playability of those early flat-top models. With its compact concert body, short 24.75" scale length, and period-correct details, the Jim Dandy delivers vintage vibes with modern reliability.

Crafted with laminated sapele tonewoods and X-bracing, this guitar produces a warm, woody tone that’s perfect for porch pickin’, blues, folk, and swing. The comfortable “C”-shaped nato neck and walnut fingerboard with oversized pearloid dot inlays make it inviting for players of all skill levels. Classic Gretsch appointments like the “G” pickguard, painted purfling, and open-gear tuners give it an authentic retro personality destined for any jam session.
