Description: Danelectro 59 DCEDIT
59-DC guitars were manufactured by Danelectro (the “DC” stands for ‘double cutaway’). This guitar made a comeback in the late 1990s with the 59-DC reissue and later with the 59-DC PRO. The 59-DC has two pickups and has the “Coke Bottle Style” classic headstock, hollowed body cavity, and a seal shaped pick guard with two double stacked concentric knobs.
Syd Barrett from the early Pink Floyd usually played this guitar before switching to Fender Telecasters, and also Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin used this model of guitar on live performances of “Kashmir”, “In My Time of Dying”, “Black Mountain Side”, and “White Summer”. When Eric Clapton was with Blind Faith he used this model with a psychedelic paint job.
The 59-DC Pro is the same guitar but with a natural wood colored neck and headstock and a fully adjustable/intonable chrome bridge instead of the classic one with the rosewood saddle.
