I saw one of those orange ones exactly like on the beginning I did not buy it because mailing it in the 0° might not be so good by the time it got here and they didn't have a case does that come with a case?
I don't normally consider buying a guitar just from watching a YT video but this looks like a really cool instrument. I like how it does its own unique thing and doesn't try to be another generic LP, Strat or Tele.
@@martyshwaartz971 Dan Electro Mini amps are fun and the fly 3 sounds good under 100 there's also a tone of 100 dollar amps that sound great and if you hit up a pawn shop you can get an audio interface for cheap then Get a guitar simulator pack for like 50 bucks and you can get a ton of awesome sounding tones for cheap.
I'm 71. The first time a guitar caught my eye was 8th grade, junior high. I'd walk past Muscara's music in Belleville, NJ, back around 1964 and see a Danelectro in the window (looked like today's Convertible model with the sound hole). Saw it every day. The seed of my interest in guitar. Parents bought me my first guitar at 15. Japanese with a neck thicker than a tree trunk. Painful. Been playing ever since (still a bit of a hack). Have numerous guitars now but never had a Danelectro. Have to get one before I croak to complete the circle. This one's a beauty, DB! That earthy sound is the tone I've been looking for. To me, it sounds better than most of the million dollar guitars you've featured. Too cool for school!
I had a Convertible that I bought in about 1988 not knowing the history of Danelectro. I just liked it because I could hear it unamplified and it wasn't as loud as my acoustic if I started bashing out Love and Rockets or whatever; thus, I could practice/play without disturbing family or college roommates. I sold it to a college buddy for 10 times as much as I had paid for it. He did know the history. It was a lot of money for me at the time, but I regret selling it to this day.
Wow! Definitely a different kind of animal. Those very first clean tones sounded like an amplified acoustic especially when you picked close to the bridge.
Great video! I just bought a Danelectro 59+ NOS the other day. Always loved the sound of those, but when I tried it, I was also very impressed by the build quality and feel. Nothing sits in the mix quite like a Danelectro!
This is cool, sounds cool, manages to be different from everything without pissing anyone off. Gotta salute Dan E. Lectro for pulling that off. After slowing down the video to cut through that Canadien accent, it appears that DBG opines fondly on this guitar, too.
I have a lifelong love of danelectro. I still play the same one that inspired all that. A 1959 dc3 deluxe. So yes I love it. I really like the independent stacked vol/tone controls with a master volume on my old one. But controls seem familiar and user friendly. Great videos and always appreciate what you do. Thank you!
That middle pickup made me go whoa. Very good tone. I think what I love most about those tones is how different each pickup is. Neck pickup on a strat always just feels like a boring version of the bridge. This has a lot of tonal variety
The clean tone at positions 3 and 4 was sweet: 5:54. It made those parts sweeter that you weren't trying to get so much jangle out of the guitar by picking right at the bridge.
I actually was given a single cutaway by a pal rescued from trash night Very vintage missing wood bridge I made and one of the best sounding guitars for recording I never played out w it Fender Gibson I thought it was and know was made cheaply but wow... amazing
Excellent as always Darrell , it has that sound that is unique, due to the structure of the guitar no doubt!Very cool unique tones for recording that special I don’t know what I want tone!
I love playing my Danelectro 59 Nos+, it is also a hollow body, with a block. I get some great sounds out of it and it also has a very flat fretboard. Makes it great for playing with a slide. This Triple Divine looks and sounds like a beauty.
Traded away my '59MJ some time back, and regret it. Danelectro makes cool guitars that are, as you say, "different." Being hollow bodies, they're very light, and the lipsticks provide excellent tone. My only complaint was the location of the strap button, wedged between the neck and the body. I moved mine to make it easier to get the strap on and off.
I really like Danelectro guitars and remember the old ones ( long horn bass etc.) in the 60s. Anyway I bought my son a 56 U-2 from Korea in the 90s and Danos keep going up in value. Me, I've ben playing for 55 + years and wish I had one. It'll go into the family collection with my guitars when I pass in trust , in the hope my newborn grandson will play 'em all and love them. Great guitars. Interesting considering Nat Daniel's humble beginnings. They are now semi valuable.Rick Beato and Zac Childs recommend everyone has one in their arsenal.
Have a Dano 12-string with the f-hole (not the current ones). Always a fan of their double cut models. Reminds me a late-90s/early 2000s DC-3, except those had a rotary chicken head pickup selector and a “blow” switch for all 3 at once. Always odd seeing a Dano without the tape around the side though.
DANELECTRO is just FUN, DARRELL! Great features, tone and a quality guitar to play and enjoy all for Great values! Always love the “Dano” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎸⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It's an interesting guitar. Danelectro is making everything a bit different and the prices are not too expensive. I have to try out Danelectro guitars. Especially the baritone.
You know, Darrell... I hear A LOT of country playing in your style. You're an overall excellent guitarist of course but I think you really excel in the country music style.
I have a 10 year old D59 12 string, and until now never thought I would be tempted by a 6 string model. After seeing, and hearing, this I would consider chopping it in for this 3 pickup version. The bridge and bridge/middle positions seem to give all the jangle I love from my 12, and middle, middle/neck and neck variations that are chonkier and might support being driven. The only thing missing from the review is now the pickups are wired; in parallel or in series like mine and the originals. Neck or bridge only might need boosting it you set up volume for the middle 3 positions.
Your tone demos are getting better. The Danelectro sound really comes through. But you forgot to mention the amp, amp settings, mic, etc. And yes, lipsticks are quack machines. I wanted to see if you would say it. Its cool they reverse engineered old pickups to make a more vintage-correct pickup. Who would have thought a fiberboard guitar could sound so good?
If you think you'll like this guitar check out the Danelectro DC3 model, i was blown enough away to buy it instead! i couldn't wait for it to be released and found out the DC3 has something the triple devine doesn't, bypass to all three pickups at once
Darrel, if your keeping this guitar I’d love to see how a five way-five way - ten position switch would sound in it. I’m talking about the one a Stewart Macdonald for $48 dollars. I was given a Glary Strat, and set about tearing it down to upgrade it. We’ll, there were more problems with it than I could imagine, but if my health improves and I can stay out of the hospital I’ll finish putting that thing back together. There’s something about and all black Strat sitting next to an all white Tele that looks great! If I get it done I’ll post pics so everyone can see. What I mean.
Interesting tones. They had one (earlier version) at the music store here but it was hanging so far up the wall I couldn't get it down to try it LOL. (Rare to see not so major brands here in buttfknowhere).
Seems they have some supply chain issues - they seem to be hardly any Danos in stock in EU with expected stock in like September 2023 at earliest ... :-/
I have a late 90's DC3 with the 6 way switching and blow switch. Surprised they didn't add a switch or push pull to mix the neck and bridge on this new model.
I've got a Danelectro Jade and I love it. Aside from the unique tone, I find the guitar to be more playable than several other more expensive guitars I own. The triple divine is very, very tempting for this guitarist.
Great demo Darrell! Could you review a guitar from Reverend? I've heard that these made in Korea/set up in USA guitars offer boutique quality guitars that are really good value for money!
@Darrell. Do you record in some sort of Faraday Cage? I'm always surprised/shocked how quiet the Single Coil Pickups are on the guitars you demo. I've never been able to avoid 60 cycle hum/noise anywhere I've lived, so all my pickups are Humbuckers, Noiseless, or Piezo.
What about the vinyl tape used to hide the glue squirting out when they glued it together....I have an older Danolectric '56' U2 as cheesy the construction, it is amazing how well it plays and sounds, even with the crappy piece of wood on the bridge it does stay in tune. Plywood with glued masonite top and back .
I have a ‘58 with the kidney pickguard. Got it for 159 bucks and it’s the best guitar I own. Better than my gibsons and fenders. Even my silvertone is better. The other guitars are beefier. That’s all it is.
Dano just released a 3 pickup version of the 59 Divine! Tones @ 3:57
Enjoy :)
Who sells them?
No tripple Divine shown in the link ....
I saw one of those orange ones exactly like on the beginning I did not buy it because mailing it in the 0° might not be so good by the time it got here and they didn't have a case does that come with a case?
I cant find it at Sweetwater or Danelectros own website.. do you have a unicorn?
One of the most unique sounding guitars in a long time....
Pretty cool to look at too...
I don't normally consider buying a guitar just from watching a YT video but this looks like a really cool instrument. I like how it does its own unique thing and doesn't try to be another generic LP, Strat or Tele.
My thoughts exactly. I think I’d prefer the two pickup version maybe.
Most do when you are playing them through a $3500+ head.

I've never been a Danelectro fan but that thing sounds amazing, so warm but also with high end jangle.
Some of the best tones you got on this channel. This guitar is so underrated.
I'm always impressed with how quiet lipstick pickups are.
You got to remind yourself once in a while that they are single coil pickups instead of humbuckers..
They’re generally pretty low output even for single coils. Just crank the gain if you want loudness. But them being quiet is nice in its own way
Wow! Definitely a different kind of animal. Those very first clean tones sounded like an amplified acoustic especially when you picked close to the bridge.
Expensive high end amps do that.

Nice looking guitar 👌 sounds tone so like a mixture of a tele stat 👍 which is cool
Great looking guitar! I love the position 2 and 4 setting...strat like but lots of sparkle and chime. Thanks for another great review!

There is something about Danelectro guitars that makes them look like something out of a cartoon.
Cartoon hippopotamus head
They me think of the show The Jetsons for some reason.
Unlike Eastwood/Airline guitars...
Simple lines..!
60s cartoon
I like that guitar a lot. Nice clean sounds.

Love this 59! I have $4K electrics but my 300$ U3 late 90's danelectro has so much personality. These 3-4 ohm low output PU's are amazing!
Yup agreed

The Dan Electro is the sound of the 1960s. There are just tons and tons of hit songs from that era that were played on a Dan Electro.

How a guitar "sounds" a combination of many, many factors. Listening to one on TH-cam gives you only an approximation. Nice looking.
They were originally built for for one of the big catalogue stores as a house brand

Great to have in the studio.
