The Gretsch Jim Dandy line has represented an appealing affordable guitar option in the acoustic world for some time now, but the company has always been keen to push the perceptions of what an acoustic guitar can sound like.
A decade ago it was putting a Bigsby and humbucker on the G5034TFT Rancher to delighted and bemused reactions. But I love its willingness to push acoustic guitars into electric tonality in ways other makers don't – and the new trio of Jim Dandy Deltoluxe could be its best attempt yet.
