(ARCHIVE) Danelectro '59M-NOS+ Black 2013
- Description

Danny DC-59, made in Korea mid 2000s, black. These are such cool guitars. The combo of lipstick pickups and a super light body deliver a Tele-style twang but with a huge amount of natural bass and punch. The moderately slim neck and light body make for an easy player; it's lively and jovial in the hands. The styling is superbly sixties; I'm pretty sure a few minutes with this in your hands deposits just a little bit of Austin Powers' mojo into your account. Heaps of fun!
