Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlor
Deep Cherry Burst

Vintage Vibe, Modern Comfort, Unforgettable Tone

Inspired by the iconic “Rex” series guitars of the 1930s–50s, the Jim Dandy™ Parlor brings timeless Gretsch® heritage into the hands of modern players. With its compact, parlor-sized body and short 24" scale, this guitar punches well above its weight—offering focused midrange, vintage charm, and outstanding playability that make it equally suited for porch pickin’, campfire crooning, or studio storytelling.

The lightweight basswood body features X-bracing for tonal clarity and vintage warmth, while the “C”-shaped nato neck offers hours of fatigue-free playing. Whether you're strumming folk, fingerpicking blues, or jamming old-timey classics, the Jim Dandy delivers a unique voice full of character and inspiration.
