Gretsch Deltoluxe Acoustic Guitar with Soundhole Pickup

Well suited for everything from bluesy pickin’ to speakeasy swingin’, you’ll love the Gretsch Jim Dandy Deltoluxe Acoustic Guitar series. These Gin Rickey evolutions are the perfect ramblin’ companion for newbies and old-timers alike.

Inspired by the historic “Rex” line of instruments offered by mail-order catalog in the 1930s, ‘40s and ’50s. Jim Dandy™ models embody the charm and spirit of those early Gretsch® flat-top guitars with the superior playability and best-in-class tone that their namesake suggests.

The body is crafted with select lightweight laminate tonewoods for an optimal balance of woody vintage tone and reliable durability. Then, the “C”-shape neck presents an inviting feel for hours of old-timey inspiration. The onboard Gretsch Deltoluxe magnetic soundhole pickup produces versatile electrified acoustic tone, providing added utility for live performance, recording, and effects pedals. Period-correct details such as a vintage-style pinned bridge, “G”-graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling, 3-on-a-plate open-gear tuning machines and oversized dot fingerboard inlays combine for a nostalgic personality destined for any barnburner or jamboree.
