A swinging guitar with a twist.

The Danelectro 1956 Single Cutaway w/ Dolphin Headstock Electric Guitar improves on the classic electric guitar manufactured from the mid '50s through the late '60s and sold in popular mail-order catalogs. The most notable improvement is the new pickup configuration and electronics.

The Danelectro guitar's bolt-on maple neck has a rosewood fretboard, and unique "dolphin" shaped headstock with 3 in-line closed tuners. Dual lipstick pickups at the bridge are wired in series to create a powerful humbucker effect. A 3-way switch allows for alternating between: position 1 - Bridge (dual coil humbucker) on; position 2 (middle) - both Bridge and Neck on in series; position 3 - Neck only.

The 1956 Danelectro guitar bridge has a metal base with notches that hold the ball-end strings, and a rosewood saddle. Other features include white knobs on dual concentric tone and volume controls, a matching "seal" pickguard, and a double acting truss rod.
