Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, this versatile Grand Auditorium produces a punchy midrange with a warm, woody low end to balance its sparkling trebles. Our V-Class bracing generates greater volume, sustain and harmony down the neck, while our special roasting process for the top adds a touch of aged-in depth and sweetness. We've enhanced the vintage character of the slightly darkened top with a subtle shaded edgeburst around the body and neck, while a firestripe faux-tortoiseshell pickguard adds a bold visual touch. Other aesthetic details include gold tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots. Like all 50th Anniversary Collection models, it features a celebratory limited-edition label, and production will be limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide. This model includes ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.

The ’59 Triple Divine is a tantalizing homage to Danelectro’s historic Deluxe series. This formidable axe channels the power and range of a vintage ’59 DC-3 Deluxe Shorthorn with three Vintage ’50s Lipstick pickups, a light and energizing double-cutaway body, and versatile 5-way pickup switching. These lipstick pickups are extremely faithful to the classic Danelectro sound — plucky and jangly when clean but with enough definition to handle everything from overdrive to fuzz. The sealed semi-hollowbody’s spruce frame not only fuels unique resonance, but also makes for effortless playability when standing for long periods — perfect for studio sessions, young players, or adults looking to mitigate the stress and strains of heavy instruments! Whether you want to tap into vintage tones or simply need an airy alternative to your solidbody guitars, the Danelectro ’59 Triple Divine is a choice worth making.

A mid-'50s Danelectro U2 will set you back a pretty penny — provided you can even get your hands on one. Fortunately for players today, the modern Danelectro 57 brings all the style, flair, and tone of the originals to a high-performance modern instrument. The Dano 57's center-blocked, semi-hollow construction and Vintage '50s Lipstick pickups give you the spank, chime, grit, and chunk of a real-deal vintage original. Tone toggling and voice tailoring are easily done using the 57's rugged 3-way switch and space-saving concentric volume/tone controls. Cream-buttoned Gotoh tuning machines, a U3 intonatable saddle bridge, and a dual-action truss rod give the modern '57 a leg up on a true '50s model.
