Elegantly dressed up to celebrate its 60th Anniversary, Danelectro have announced the DC59M 6 string electric guitar with the familiar flagship, double cutaway shorthorn body shape, finished in a Deep Blue Metalflake, or available in a Silver Metalflake. Features include a 21-fret fingerboard, fully adjustable wraparound bridge, a pair of NOS+ lipstick pickups, 3-way selector switch and stacked volume and tone controls.
For more lipstick output, the new Danelectro DC59X12 12 string electric guitar has a dual lipstick pickup in the bridge position with coil tap facilities offering the classic Danelectro tone at humbucker or single coil volume levels.
This 12 string guitar is available in Black, Cream or Dark Red, has a friendly neck and fingerboard, aluminium nut, low action and fully adjustable chrome die cast bridge.
Also new from Danelectro, is the DG64XT with a modern and authentic adaptation of the classic off-set, reversed double cutaway from the 1950’s. Finished in Black, Vintage Cream and 3 Tone Sunburst, the DG64XT again includes the company’s familiar headstock, allowing straight string pull which, with a precision cut graphite nut, ensures the Wilkinson vibrato bridge system returns to zero pitch every time.
The DG64XT’s hardware and electrics also include a single coil pickup with large housing angled at the neck and a dual humbucking lipstick pickup installed at the opposite angle at the bridge. Controls include a master volume and master tone control with coil tap for the bridge pickup and 3-way selector switch.
