With the Gretsch G9500 Jim Dandy Flattop in a timeless vintage white finish, the traditional manufacturer continues the popular "Rex" parliamentary guitars of the 1940s and 1950s. The agile acoustic instrument has an agathis wood body with a crisp response and radiance, not least thanks to the X-ceiling strut. The Natohals in the classic C-profile is equipped with an easily playable rosewood fingerboard and a Dual Action Truss Rod for fine adjustment of temperature and humidity differences. Optically, classic features such as the pickguard with "G" graphics, 50s Style Open Gear tuners with Vintage "T"-Roof logo and an aged black body binding ensure the well-known Gretsch appearance. All in all a successful replica for classics and fans of a compact Parlor for the living room at home!

easily the best bang-for-buck guitar youll find on the market nowadays, especially if youre a fingerpicker looking for some delta blues flavored guitar.
Greatest virtue: easy, VERY easy to play ... almost addictive!
I've been eyeing the Jim Dandy for a while since I wanted a specific sound for blues, and this guitar definitely delivered! I knew it would sound great, but the first time I played it, the projection and the darkness of it blew me away. It's very comfortable for finger picking and strumming alike, the neck is a dream to play on. Just overall an amazing guitar that fits my needs to a T.
Great for finger-style, not so great for strumming as the higher registers are a little tinny, but not unexpected in such a small bodied guitar. Generally well set up but would benefit from a change of strings & maybe lower the action a little. I bought it as a travel guitar, so ideal for my practice needs & it didn't break the bank. Also, great service from DV247, couldn't fault them. Cheers guys.
