Unleash a wallet-friendly opulence and vintage tone with the 6-string/12-string Doubleneck electric guitar from Sweetwater! Twice the necks — but never twice the weight It’s an ingenious semi-hollow build that’s stood the test of time: a spruce body frame capped with hardboard paired with a center block that eliminates feedback. Liable, rugged, and beyond versatile, no guitar body sounds quite like a Danelectro’s body! The spruce/hardboard formula was originally a cost-cutting measure, but players instantly fell in love with the unique lightweight and lively sound. With assertive warmth somewhere between a solidbody and a more traditional semi-hollowbody, the Danelectro Doubleneck is a favorite for rhythmic 12-string jangle, thick leads, slide guitar, articulate six-string rhythms, and more. Vintage-spec lipstick pickups The 6-string/12-string Doubleneck helps you manage tone changes quickly with stacked volume/tone knobs, plus a simple 2-way guitar switch for selecting your active neck and pickup sets. Four lipstick pickups provide a wide variety of vintage-tinged tones. The bridge pickups are your go-to for jangle and leads with focused bass, punchy midrange, and treble that’s spicy or sweet (depending on tone knob settings). The neck Lipstick pickups provide an enhanced low-frequency gristle that fills sonic space and comes to life when played clean or driven. Turning both pickups on reveals a unique aspect of Danelectro wiring — series wiring in the middle position. Compared to the parallel wiring found on most electric guitars, the series-wired positions produce an extra-beefy tone with roaring bass/midrange response and less treble. Faithful design Today, Danelectro '50s pickup specs read like diligent recitations of the originals. Inside, Alnico VI magnets uniquely wrapped with coil and tape make these pickups sound as authentic as they look. Outside, the chrome covers are made from 80/20 brass zinc, just like the tubes Danelectro bought from a cosmetics factory back in the day. A final detail — aluminum nuts — proves that the Danelectro Doubleneck is a worthy heir of a legendary sound. Opting for aluminum instead of conventional materials like plastic or synthetic bone lets this doubleneck’s strings vibrate with the unique resonance of Danelecto’s golden age. Premium playability Sweetwater guitarists found the Danelectro Doubleneck’s C profile maple necks and 25-inch fingerboard scales pack a stellar blend of playability and range, further enhanced by Shorthorn body cutaways for giant leaps and stress-free solos. What’s more, pitch-perfect tone is always within reach; the Doubleneck comes outfitted with adjustable saddles for reliable tuning and long-term performance. Danelectro: 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 Entwistle (check out the bass solo on “My Generation”), 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 and better than ever: Sweetwater is proud to offer you this formidable lineup of iconic vintage-inspired instruments.

  1. Exactly as described...brand new, in the original box and had never been opened. This was the best price ANYWHERE on this item in this condition, and even better that some used ones as well. BUT..the thing is..the shipping ! Fastest I have ever had, and it has happened over and over with these folks. Absolutely superb, and I sincerely mean that. I will never hesitate to buy from them. I am 79, and have been playing since I was 14, and Sweetwater is GREAT !! To have this kind of service...WOW

  2. I received this item on time as described by the seller. However, the box it came in was completely crushed with split open corners and the retail box the headphones came in was damaged as well. Ultimately the headphones inside were not damaged which is the main concern. It's impossible to know whether the box was damaged in transit or left the seller that way but either way I received a crushed box. I'm satisfied overall about the purchase.
