4-string Bass Guitar with Hardboard/Plywood Body, Maple Neck, Pau Ferro Fingerboard, and 2 Single-coil Pickups - Copper Burst
Classic Dano Long Scale Bass Sound and Feel
There are few musical instruments more instantly recognizable than a Danelectro '59DC Long Scale Bass. Sporting the iconic Shorthorn body style, this classic bass guitar's two high-impedance, high-output Lipstick pickups serve up the round low-end growl that drove alt-rock hits back in the '90s. Now the Danelectro '59DC Long Scale Bass is back. Its lightweight hardboard/plywood body is comfortable whether playing standing or seated and its fast maple neck and pau ferro fingerboard provide smooth playability, while a fully adjustable bridge lets you set your intonation to your liking. The Danelectro '59DC Long Scale Bass flawlessly re-creates the "Dano" bass sound heard on countless records. You simply must experience it for yourself.
That signature growl
The two single-coil Lipstick pickups in the'59DC Long Scale Bass deliver the one-of-a-kind tone that has captured the imagination of so many bassists over the decades. With their coils wrapped around an alnico magnet and then wrapped in tape, these pickups harken back to the vintage tone of rock's earliest days. The result is a round and punchy sound that truly stands alone. And with a 3-way pickup selector plus volume and tone controls for each pickup, you'll have a lot of options for dialing in your ideal tone for any track.
An iconic American brand
Founded in 1947, Danelectro produced guitar amps throughout the 1940s before expanding into guitars in the '50s. With their beloved quirky hollowbody designs, hardboard/plywood construction, and Lipstick pickups, the iconic Danelectro designs are instantly recognizable. Among other innovations, Danelectro introduced the baritone guitar in 1956, and the electric sitar in 1967. From guitar gods Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck to Who bassist John Entwhistle (check out the bass solo on "My Generation") to country superstar Glen Campbell, Tom Petty lead guitarist Mike Campbell, and the ever-eclectic Wilco guitarist and solo artist Nels Cline, Danos have become staples in the guitar and bass arsenals of top artists in all genres. Now Danelectro is back again and better than ever.
