While it may have not sold the numbers other classic electric guitar designs have, the classic Dano look and sound may be every bit as familiar around the world as just about any other guitar design out there. The Danelectro '63 Dano captures this vibe for you in spades. Built with its feet firmly in the vintage design of the older Danos, this vintage-vibed axe offers you the ability to go from really old-school twang to modern fuzzed-out garage rock.

Like the original Danelectros, the '63 Dano electric guitar sports lipstick-style pickups. The '56 lipstick pickups offer you the classic Danelectro round-twang that fits great in any recording or live mix. They sound particularly amazing for bluesy slide work. And since lipstick pickups were originally built by Danelectro, you can assume they know a thing or two about bringing you great lipstick tone. Take it from the Sweetwater crew - the '63 Dano offers a unique sound that will fit perfectly in your tonal arsenal.

Like a great many vintage guitar designs, older Danos can sometimes fall victim to reliability issues. But you'll be able to gig your '63 Dano electric guitar without worry, thanks to modern updates that bring the guitar up to today's high-quality standards. You'll get great intonation up and down the neck with the intonation-adjustable wraparound bridge. And, while it's unfortunately missing in the older instruments, you get an adjustable truss rod to make sure your '63 Dano's neck stays straight and playing true.
