Danelectro

While Fender, Gibson, Gretsch and Rickenbacker were making guitars from the highest quality tone woods in the late 50s and 60s – Nat Daniel went in another direction. He made cheaper guitars that anybody could afford. Cheap, but playable and with a great, unique sound. Great sound was certainly obtainable from Danelectros – as Jimmy Page proved with his Shorthorn six string and John Entwhistle demonstrated to a similar level of perfection with the Longhorn bass. The '59M NOS+ boasts everything players love about the Danelectro '59, including the distinctive shorthorn shape, a fully adjustable wraparound bridge, and stacked tone/volume controls. And with a pair of NOS+ lipstick pickups, you've got the character of the original NOS pickups but with brighter highs, punchier mids, and more powerful lows.

This FX pedal is a reissue of a rare 1980’s "hidden gem". It's a stellar boost of all frequencies, plus clean pre amp with tons of gain. You can get really crisp clean tones with the volume set at half or less. Run the volume past 50% can get to edge of breakup on clean amps and searing sustain on something with a little dirt. All the Billionaire pedals are known for their build quality and small convenient size. The pedals are housed in a curvaceous, all-metal shell that is based on classic American car designs, taking up a smaller footprint than normal pedals. The quality construction continues into the controls with a solid feel throughout and textured grips for ease of use. This series of pedals by Danelectro are conveniently sized, super ergonomic, tough and sound great!

Abhivaadan! It’s the return of the legendary Danelectro Coral electric sitar — that’s right: the iconic 1960s design, complete with drone strings and a crackle finish! Now it’s back, a meticulous reissue in all its vintage glory, with the sound heard on countless hits. While this Danelectro sitar serves up exotic sounds, it has a familiar feel that won’t interfere with your playing style. Sure, if you want it to sound more authentic you’ll need to learn some new scales and find the best way to deploy the extra “mini-harp” course of drone strings, but this 6-string instrument is tuned to standard guitar tuning, making it easy and fun to play. This is your chance to own a legend. Spice your music with the one, the only Danelectro sitar!

The Stock '59 is constructed with a lightweight hardboard/plywood center-block body that delivers that jangly signature "Dano" sound with enhanced sustain. In addition, a maple neck with pau ferro fingerboard offers smooth playability, while the traditional bridge with wood swivel saddle and aluminum nut play their part in flawlessly re-creating the "Dano" sound heard on countless hit records.
