Danelectro 56 Baritone Left Handed 2023 - Black

Nothing twangs—or thunders—like a baritone guitar. And nothing does it better or more affordably than the Danelectro Baritone. 

Lightweight, semi-hollowbody construction—lightweight spruce with ply tops and backs—makes the Baritone easy to play. And now, build quality is far superior to the older versions, with easy-playing, solid necks, comfortable 29 3/4” scale and excellent action. Combined with a tunable bridge/tailpiece, these new models are much more dependable than their predecessors.  

These Bari’s also feature hotter, higher-impedance ‘lipstick’ pickups than older models, with the same snarl and bite. Tuned from B-B, it’s perfect for tic-tac bass, "lonesome cowboy" tremolo tones, all-out rockabilly twang or earth-shaking metal mayhem—all at a very low price.

Why We Like It 

We’re big fans of the baritone sound, but we also realize it’s not an ‘every-song’ sound. So we like being able to offer a cost-effective instrument for players who want more sonic options in their bag of tricks. Plus, Dano’s are lightweight, retro-cool, and they sound great. Made in Korea and finished in California, the quality control is really good. We give the Dano Baritone a big thumbs-up!
