DANELECTRO U2 1998 REISSUE

In 1998 Danelectro returned to the marketplace, releasing reissues of their famed guitars from the 1950s. These originally cheap-and-cheerful catalogue guitars became go-to instruments for the likes of Jimmy Page.

I bought this one brand new in 1998, and have used it for various things over the year, such as slide playing, or strung for Nashville tuning. Here I've given it some TLC, and put it back into standard tuning.

EDIT: At 3:56, it should read 'STARSINGER SLIDES', not 'STARSLINGER SLIDES'

Really great demo, you've given a great sense for how it sounds and feels to play.

Love these Danelectros. I have the same guitar in the same Commie Red color but left handed 🎸

Nice review. Put her through the paces.

Great Video! Thinking of getting the exact one just in Aqua, price is listed at 500$ but I think I could get it down to 400$. Would that be a good deal in your opinion?
