Description
- The iconic Shorthorn design makes a triumphant return in the Danelectro 59XT. Tapping the hardwood/plywood semi-hollow body reveals a rich resonance, unplugged or onstage, which is probably why you could formerly see these guitars in the hands of notable axemen like Syd Barrett and Jimmy Page.
- A rock-solid Wilkinson vintage floating tremolo arms the Danelectro 59XT for deeply expressive playing. The arm works in both directions, allowing players to bend notes up or down to pitch. In addition to the standard ’80s tricks and more subtle forms of texturizing, players will find this useful for mimicking slide work and vocalizations. Paired with its other assets, there’s no question: the Danelectro 59XT from Sweetwater is a lot of guitar for not a lot of dough.
