A little history: In 1947 Nathan Daniels begins making amps Electar (Socit owned Epiphone). In 1954 he sells the Premire Danelectro guitars: no Chres, factories in the United States, they are destined primarily for beginners who can not afford the Fender or Gibson onreuses more. Daniels continues to build as a subcontractor and most of its productions eventually under other names, including Silvertone. The socity is doing well and every day until two hundred guitars leave the factory in New Jersey. But these guitars will also sduire more experienced guitarists, including a Jimmy Page. Most of MODELS Danelectro, a lightweight body and atypical Masonite (Contents mystrieuse, in fact, against the plate), single coil pickups vritables surroundings of the red tube Vres (lipstick), cheap-sounding but especially INTERESTED original design trs typ years 50-60. Danelectro MODELS propose to design classic like The series G, but also innovative MODELS REALLY like Longhorn, the Dano Pro, twelve string and double handles. In 1968, Danelectro out in full hippie PERIOD an "electric sitar" electrified census reproduce the sound of Indian sitar! But in 1969 the firm closed its doors: the Asian invasion begins and Danelectro can fight. Renat the socity in 1998 and offers including pedals cheap but quality honorable, vintage-inspired. The guitars come out of the catalog in dropper and small quantity. Ds collectors of their release!

Mine is colored aqua blue ah got the right of the 50's! The design is superb, original, indmodable, inimitable. A real favorite. One of my guitars prfres, and yet I have some beautiful trs MODELS ...
The quality of manufacture is unfortunately remains era: no glory! On the other ct for 300 euros ... difficult to say that it is well built! But his qualities are not the ...
UTILIZATION
Its qualities are not the ...
The guitar is poorly RULES of origin: I had to correct the action too low, bordered on the E string. The rglage the bridge is not prcis (fixed by 3 screws !!!).
The handle is ... particular. Not for shreders is sr. Finally playable all the same and not uncomfortable.
CHAC in boxes "acute" is dlicat: the junction body / neck is the 14ME box without cutaway! 19 boxes is enough because you have dj russia reach them.
Holding agreement is random image: Beware of bends and supported by powerful blows mdiator!
Slecteurs the volume and tonality are not progressive at all, it plutt on / off: prcisment difficult to dose and it is a shame.

SOUNDS
Well here we go!
When empty, the guitar sounds good: it is, remember, a semi-hollow body.
Once connected, welcome to the 50s: a clear and crystalline. It's been twang, it's brilliant, chattering. But that's not all. Danelectro had the good FDI cbler her lipstick in SERIES, not parallle. Your exact? A configuration similar to a humbucker, a consquent output level and a more round. That allows to address crunch well supported and very dirty play rock.
Add slecteurs volume and tonal control adjusts the treble and output level: what qualified heavy distortion. You need a little boost with a more aggressive and want to play a blues hot: the position intermdiaire agree! Too bad that so little progressive slecteurs!
In any case, once branch impossible not to fall in love: sounds kind trs years 50-60 and a mounting SERIES Confre him a double personality .
Although sr wish we could have a switch SERIES / parallle. We could have ... but really who cares.
OVERALL OPINION
RULES poorly, poorly done, poorly constructed, but what a charm: irrsistible! The unique design and rtro, typs sounds, this guitar is incomparable. Despite its many rdhibitoires default that would be for any other instrument, impossible not to fall in love. What inimitable characters!
If you find one in Russia, the price jump on the immediately.
