Add Authenticity to Your Delta Blues Licks

Want to add authenticity to your Delta blues licks? The Danelectro ’59 Resonator will do that for you. With it, you can achieve the metallic ring and heavenly sustain that are essential to the genre — effortlessly. It all starts with a familiar double-cut body, adorned with a tone-enhancing diamond plate cover. A lipstick single-coil pickup combines with a cone-mounted piezo to deliver a multitude of amplified sonic textures. A C-shaped neck ensures comfortable playability. This resonator guitar includes an aluminum nut and eye-catching satin finish. If you want to delve into acoustic blues or pure country music, you need a great-sounding resonator like the Danelectro ’59.

Achieve a multitude of amplified sonic textures

It’s easy to dial in a great tone when you plug the ’59 Resonator into your favorite amp. A ’56 Lipstick single-coil pickup yields traditional bell-like Dano chime, while a high-output, cone-mounted piezo captures the guitar’s natural acoustic tone with stunning realism. You get standard volume and tone controls, along with a pickup blend control for achieving the perfect balance between plinky attack and brassy resonance.

Comfortable and easy to play

Some resophonic guitars are difficult to play, but not the ’59 Resonator. Its slim, double-cut body is comfortable to hold, even for small players. Its maple, pau ferro-capped C-shaped neck feels great in your hand for bottleneck-style playing. The guitarists here have played the Danelectro ’59 Resonator as a lap steel as well — it’s a great all-around instrument.
