'59 Dano 2nd Reissue
circa 2007

Revamped in 2007, the '59 Danelectro comes with upgraded pickups,
upgraded electronics, fully adjustable/intonating bridge, plus
antiqued pickguard, antiqued side binding tape and antiqued hardware.
The '59 Dano features professional level playability, intonation, and
electronics and is entirely road worthy.The four finishes were inspired by
classic car colors and convey a truly retro vibe. Comes with the familiar side
binding tape running around the edge of the guitar. The tape has been lightly
treated with a shellac to enhance the vintage look.The tuners are die cast
and hold the tuning well. An aluminum nut contributes to its unique sound.
The '59's lipstick style Alnico pickups provide that distinctive Dano twang.
A warmer wind on these pickups increases the output while producing a less
high-end tone. A beefy 3-position (on-on-on) toggle switch and rugged volume
and tone knobs stand up well to aggressive playing. By the way, the playability
is one of the most impressive aspects of this guitar with low, buzz free action.
This is a quality guitar with plenty of sustain, great tone and it will give you
the feeling that you are playing a much more expensive instrument!
