Danelectro ’56-U2 Reissue 1998-2004 in Aqua Burst for sale — a cult-favorite guitar with unmistakable retro styling and a truly distinctive voice. Inspired by the original 1950s Danelectro design, this reissue stands out for its light weight, easy playability, and especially the unmistakable character of its lipstick pickups: bright, jangly, edgy, and full of personality. It is an excellent choice for surf, indie, garage, blues, vintage pop, or any style where you want a tone that breaks away from more conventional guitar formats.

Description
This Danelectro ’56-U2 Reissue stands out for its lightweight semi-hollow construction, unapologetically vintage styling, and instantly recognizable tone. With its hardboard / Masonite body over a frame with a plywood center, bolt-on maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard, it offers a simple, direct, and highly inspiring playing experience. Its two lipstick-style single-coil pickups deliver the classic Danelectro mix of clarity, bite, and singing midrange that made these guitars so memorable. The 3-way selector and stacked volume/tone controls make it easy to explore a range of textures, from bright cleans to drier, more cutting sounds.
