Danelectro Solid-Body

This model, a mid-1960s Danelectro, is a typical example of Daniel’s “cheap and cheerful” approach to design and construction.

It’s body is made from poplar, topped and backed with stapled-on Masonite hardboard, and it’s single pickup is mounted inside a chrome-plated lipstick casing. With a silver of rosewood serving as a bridge saddle, little or no adjustment is possible.
