Danelectro

Danelectro Ethnic instruments Stringed Instruments For sale

Nathan Daniel got his start by making amplifiers for Epiphone, but left to open Danelectro in 1947.  He soon began creating guitars for a number of major distributors in the United States under a variety of names.  Danelectro guitars were sold under the name of Airline (for Montgomery Ward), Silvertone (for Sears), and Danelectro.  Almost ten years later, Danelectro guitars came to have a certain look about them, as Daniel introduced some uniformity to his models, including poplar wood and “lipstick tube” pickups.

 

Many great artists have played a Danelectro, including Billy Bragg, Syd Barrett, Eric Clapton, George Harrison, John Lee Hooker, Mick Jagger, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, and Thom Yorke.
