The Danelectro '56 Pro Electric Guitar is a fantastic new limited edition guitar, built for sound and playability.
After guitar production ceased in the last century, Danelectro concentrated on their very well regarded effect pedals, but, after realising that their 'vintage' guitars were trading for silly money, they decided the time was right to start production up again.
Only one model is in production, and available in strictly limited numbers. The '56 Pro features a lightwieght semi-hollow body, 'lipstick tube' single coil alnico pickups and cast bridge, all giving a unique sound and vibe. Simple, upgraded volume and tone controls, aluminium top nut, better fit and finish, an adjustable truss rod are a few of the new features on this model, a significant step up compared to some previous re-issues.
Tone generated is full and round, the pickups are really hot, with loads of resonance, and should be good for a load of different styles.
A very cool retro axe with a quality fit and finish, easy playability and that unmistakable Danelectro tone and vibe.
