TelecasterShaggy Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I went to my local music yesterday and saw this funny shaped, old school danelectro guitar sittin there. The night before, I watched the Royal Albert Hall video where Jimmy is using his Danelectro, so I decided to try it out and was completly blown away. This thing feels great and the lipstick pickups were amazing. They are wired different than my telecaster so when I put the switch in the middle postition it got louder rather than quieter like it does on teles, a cool little thing. I was playing Bring It On Home and the guy at the store said "Led Zeppelin nice", then a lil later I was playing Whole Lotta Love and a little kid came up to me and asked if I could play Stairway so I started playing it and explaining it to him about how I might get kicked out for playing it, this younger generation just doesnt understand(and Im saying this as a 19 year old) I was amazed by this guitar so I looked at the price tag to see how expensive it is and WOW, what I was guessing to be a 600- 700 dollar guitar (way out of my price range) was listed for 299.99. I am going back tomarrow to pick it up. Does anyone else have Danelectros out there?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanna be drummer Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Ask Danelectro, I'm sure he's knowledgeable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gainsbarre Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Does anyone else have Danelectros out there?? Of course! The Danelectro 56-U2 is my favourite guitar of all time, nothing plays as good as it does, and I bought it for $250, dirt cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyPage1977 Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) Got the DC59 and a Doubleneck....6/12...never play them. They both sound cool, but don't fit in with my other gear. I play Les Pauls, PRS HollowbodyII and an Epiphone Jimmy Page Custom Doubleneck. Edited July 31, 2008 by JimmyPage1977 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TelecasterShaggy Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 WOW the 63 dano is a super sweet guitar. Ive been playing it for awhile now and dont see any problems with it and for 300 bucks you cant beat it. Go Danelectro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
