      When I see these guitars it makes me think of grungy, cheap, pawn shop kinda sounds. Sleater-Kinney used one of these (at least there was one on the cover of Dig Me Out) and Led Zeppelin also used these, among some others. Definitely more hard-rock oriented to me. This thing’s got some history behind it!

    When you want to be vintage AND contemp at the same time, the 59 nos+ does that and more for me. It’s rare that a guitar you’d expect more fit for a 60s Mod Revival sound (which it’s got that to a T) can also deliver a crunchy distorted bar chord barrage from hell, and it does so much with so little. This Dano may not be perfect for everyone, but she’s perfect for me. ❤️‍🔥

    I knew this would chug when I saw it, but it’s still good to hear it. The pickups are relatively low output so they don’t drive an amp super hard, but if you get enough gain otherwise, they have a glorious midrange sound that works great for chunky, chuggy tones

    Love these guitars! I have a 'stock 59 & I've found: either keeping the tone control below 3/4ths & rolling back the volume or swapping to using flatwound strings definitely helps tame the high-gain sounds. IMO it's also worthwhile to shield the entire back face of the pickgaurd with copper (and solder a connecting wire to earth/back of volume pot) as that helps cut some of the electrical noise

They have a unique tone and unique looks and are just super fun guitars regardless of what genre of music you're into.

    I have a Danelectro U2 from like 1999 that is pretty sure made of plywood, but I like it, makes sounds none my other guitars can, but the tuneres are absolute trash sticky / jumpy shit that I should have changed, also needed to replace the bridge wood at least twice, and straighten out the bridge and put something under the middle so it doesnt bend

    NO IDEA - why I wanted one haha. Did not come from any music artist that used one, didn't even listen to much blues or rock that would utilize lipstick pickups.
    Sold it years later. Still miss it simply for the quirkyness.

    I have a Danelectro U-2. The originals were USA made. It is a hollow body wood frame, Masonite covering, and as was style for the time Daddy-O Yellow. They were guitars built for the poor man, budget market. They have a unique sound and sound great clean ir riding the edge of feedback while making feedback part of what you are playing.

    I was planning on buying a guitar just like this (but with a deep blue metalflake finish, instead of baby blue) back in early 2020, mainly to add something different to my collection...then COVID hit and I was laid-off from work. I was finally able to find a new job a few weeks ago and I would still love to get one of these at some point, but I haven't recovered financially enough yet to even think about it. I just hope that I can get one before they stop production on them or inflation causes their prices to skyrocket. I mainly play metal, but there's just something about a few Danelectro models that's oddly appealing to me.
