Inspired by (and faithful to) the Gretsch "Rex" parlor guitars of the early 20th Century, the Gretsch G9500 Jim Dandy is a blast from the past but certainly sounds better than that battered old thing that sat in the corner of my Grandad's dining room.

Perfect for both picked and fingerstyle playing, the Jim Dandy features a 24" scale for comfortable, smooth-playing.

Wrapped in a classic 2-Color Sunburst finish, the G9500 also has 1950s-style vintage open-gear die-cast tuning machines, nickel hardware and single-ply white pickguard featuring a "G" graphic.

Ideal for songwriting, practice or even as a travel guitar, this little wonder is great for beginners or seasoned pros alike. Comfortable to play, and full of woody vintage tone with full-sounding bass, the Jim Dandy will inspire hours of playing joy.
