Gretsch Deltoluxe Dreadnought - Black Top

Inspired by the vintage "Rex" line of guitars advertised in mail-order catalogs during the 1930s, ‘40s, and ‘50s, the Jim Dandy models capture the essence and charisma of those early Gretsch flat-top guitars, offering excellent playability and top-notch tone.

With a unique slope shoulder body shape and a modest 24.75-inch scale length, the Jim Dandy Deltoluxe Dreadnought provides a comfortable and compact design without compromising on the volume, projection, and bass response that dreadnought guitars are known for.

Crafted with lightweight laminate tonewoods and X-braced for optimum vintage tone and durability, the guitar features a "C"-shaped neck that ensures a comfortable playing experience for extended periods. Equipped with the onboard Gretsch Deltoluxe magnetic soundhole pickup, the guitar offers versatile amplified acoustic tones suitable for live performances, recording, and effects pedals.

Featuring vintage-style details such as a pinned bridge, tortoiseshell binding, "G" graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling, 3-on-a-plate open-gear tuning machines, and oversized dot fingerboard inlays, this guitar exudes a nostalgic charm perfect for any barn gathering or musical jamboree.

From bluesy porch sessions to lively swing tunes, the Gretsch Jim Dandy Deltoluxe Dreadnought is an ideal companion for both beginners and seasoned players alike.
