1959 had some truly interesting events, whether it's the first time we sent objects into space, the invention of MOSFET transistors, the signing of the Antarctic treaty, and sooo much more. Including the creation of this wonderful guitar from Danelectro. This is a reissue of a the 1959 classic. This Danelectro is based on the double cut model that premiered back in the day. What you get is a light semi-hollow super resonant masonite body with a beautiful black finsih, with a sleek comfy neck with rosewood fingerboard. You get plenty of access with its double-cut design. There is a sytlish large pickguard with a 3-way pickup selector and volume and tone controls. This is a supremely comfortable guitar to play! Let's talk pickups. The lipstick pickups on this guitar are synonymous with Danelectro guitars. They give you a distinct flavor of single-coil tone that is bright, yet punchy in the mids with great bass response. All of the appointments add up to an instrument that is definitely a blast from the past. This Danelectro is great condition and comes with a gig bag. It's been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop. It's a sweet score at a sweet price! S/N 021664
