Description
With its period-correct body shape and traditional hardware placement, Sweetwater guitarists agree that the limited-edition Jim Dandy Concert Solid Top acoustic guitar is a stunningly authentic replication of Gretsch's classic mail-order model. The secret to matching this iconic tone is in the combination of a solid spruce top with other laminated tonewoods, which provides the warmth and sonic punch that's expected of the company's revered backyard strummers. Additional vintage features, including all-nickel hardware and open-gear tuning machines, further supply an unmistakable appearance while ensuring solid performance reminiscent of the instrument's original fixtures. Porch pickin', travel jamming, you name it — this Gretsch classic has been through it all. Rest assured, adding the Jim Dandy Concert Solid Top acoustic to your instrumental arsenal is a one-way ticket to take on any musical scenario with antique-infused confidence.
Sturdy laminate construction and X-bracing
A spruce wood top with laminate back and sides ensures the Jim Dandy Concert Solid Top acoustic bears true acoustic tonal power, without the extra weight on your shoulders. Inside the soundhole lies carefully designed X-bracing, adding extra durability to your instrument while keeping vibrations stable and resonant. Because of the guitar's wood grain surface, you won't be sacrificing charming looks either. Whether you plan on playing onstage, in the studio, or by the back door, the Jim Dandy maintains a sharp, historic appearance in any musician's hands
Traditional nato neck
The Jim Dandy's smooth nato neck combines a dovetail neck joint and a C-shaped profile for maximum maneuverability, not to mention a semi-gloss finish for lightning-fast movements along the instrument's walnut fingerboard. Speaking of which, fretboard side markers and white dot inlays keep fretting accurate during jam sessions while maintaining a recognizable, authentic appearance.
Vintage appointments supply a classic porch-pickin’ feel
Like its iconic shape and tonewood design, the Jim Dandy’s onboard hardware and fixtures pay homage to its age-old instrumental ancestor. A genuine walnut bridge with a compensated saddle pairs with a synthetic bone nut for reliable string positioning and authentic vibration transfer. Likewise, nickel hardware and open-gear die-cast tuning machines ensure solid intonation support and an authentic vintage look. It’s all topped off with a smooth gloss finish — ensuring a smooth feel and advanced handling that comes as close as possible to the original model.
