Description
Description
This second hand electric guitar is in very good condition.
Some fading to the edge strip and very small nick on the top of the headstock
The Danelectro DC59 is a modern reissue of the iconic 1959 Shorthorn model, celebrated for its distinctive tone, lightweight build, and vintage charm. This guitar has found favor among musicians seeking a unique sound and aesthetic, offering a blend of retro design and contemporary playability.
Design & Construction
The DC59 features a semi-hollow body constructed with a Masonite top and back over a plywood frame, contributing to its remarkably light weight of just over six pounds. This design not only makes it comfortable for extended playing sessions but also imparts a resonant, airy tone that sets it apart from solid-body guitar
The bolt-on maple neck has a C-shaped profile, a 25-inch scale length, and a rosewood fretboard with 21 frets, offering a familiar feel for players accustomed to Fender-style guitars. The signature "Coke bottle" headstock and seal-shaped pickguard enhance its vintage appeal
Sound & Pickups
Equipped with two lipstick-style single-coil pickups, the DC59 delivers a bright, jangly tone with a clear top end. These pickups are known for their glassy, crystalline clarity on clean settings and can produce a gritty, mid-heavy tone when overdriven, making them versatile for genres ranging from surf rock to blues
The concentric stacked knobs for volume and tone control each pickup individually, allowing for a range of tonal options. When both pickups are engaged in series, the guitar offers a fuller, humbucker-like sound without sacrificing the single-coil transparency
Hardware & Playability
The DC59's bridge has seen improvements over earlier models, featuring an intonatable saddled bridge that enhances tuning stability and intonation accuracy.
The guitar's lightweight construction and comfortable neck profile make it an excellent choice for players seeking a distinctive instrument that stands out both visually and sonically.
Pros
-
Unique Tone: The lipstick pickups provide a distinctive sound that's both bright and full.
-
Lightweight Design: Easy to handle, making it ideal for long playing sessions.
-
Vintage Aesthetics: Classic design elements appeal to fans of retro guitars.
-
Improved Hardware: Modern updates enhance tuning stability and playability.
The Danelectro DC59 is a compelling choice for guitarists seeking a blend of vintage style and unique tone. Its lightweight build, distinctive pickups, and classic design make it a standout instrument that inspires creativity. While it may not suit every player's preferences, the DC59 offers a refreshing alternative that's both fun to play and visually striking
