NEW Danelectro 56 Baritone - Dakota Red

Check out this NEW Danelectro 56 Baritone  - Dakota Red. This baritone has that classic Danelectro Vibe, but holds a huge sound. Both lipstick pickups are very full in tone, the bridge offering more cut that gives this guitar a nice sparkle. It is also lightweight. The body is very thin, making it very comfortable to play. The bright Dakota Red finish just adds to the overall vibe of this instrument. 

Here's what Danelectro has to say: 

Baritone Reissue with Hot-wound Lipstick Pickups

This sharp-dressed Baritone reissue from the 2019 Danelectro collection delivers the bass down low — real low. We're talking B to B. That's a perfect fourth below standard E to E tuning. And whether you're a downtuned country picker, a drop-tuned hard rocker, or an accompanist/recording artist on the prowl for alternate open-chord voicings, the Danelectro Baritone is built take your music in exciting new directions. The hybrid 29.75" scale-length maple neck makes a comfortable transition for bass players and guitarists both. Electronics-wise, two high-output lipstick pickups driven by a simple 3-way selector permit quick access to those coveted Dano Bari tones, along with a sweet, throaty breakup that won't leave you drowning in amp noise. All the while, classic Danelectro stylings — the Art Deco single-cut body style and iconic Dolphin headstock — make this bari a sweet addition to any collector's showcase.
