The Gretsch Deltoluxe Parlour Electro Acoustic, Black Top is a tribute to the historic “Rex” line of instruments popular in the 1930s, ‘40s, and ’50s. Drawing inspiration from those iconic flat-top guitars, this model combines vintage charm with exceptional playability and top-notch tone.
Featuring a compact concert body shape and a shorter 24.75“ scale length, the Jim Dandy Deltoluxe Parlour strikes the perfect balance between versatile tone and accessible playability. Crafted with lightweight laminate tonewoods and X-bracing, it offers a delightful mix of vintage tonality and durable construction. The comfortable "C"-shaped neck provides hours of inspiration for your old-school tunes.
Equipped with the onboard Gretsch Deltoluxe magnetic soundhole pickup, this guitar offers versatile electrified acoustic tone, making it a great choice for live performances, recording sessions, and experimenting with effects pedals. With period-correct details like a vintage-style pinned bridge, a "G"-graphic pickguard, painted pinstripe purfling, and oversized dot fingerboard inlays, this instrument exudes a nostalgic personality perfect for casual porch strumming, and classic jazz performances on-stage.
