I need to sell my Vintage Danelectro Guitar - Help!
Hi Guys,
I have a cool old Danelectro Electric Guitar in great shape for it's age, I got it a s a gift from my uncle when I was a kid.. est. 1968.. I know he had it for years before he gave it to me.. Unfortunately, I need to sell her..
I just had it cleaned and tuned up at the local guitar shop here in Mpls MN, they were surprised at how well it played and sounded.. Copper/Gold body, White trim on side, single cutaway body style, single lip stick pickup. 3 per side tuning pegs on neck.. Original case!
I have no idea how to describe this guitar for sale, Is there a way to verify age? Any help from you experienced Danelectro guys would be appreciated!
Email me for pics and or questions - cnorris3@yahoo.com

if you have not gotten your answer yet about the age of the guitar send me some pics and take the inspection cover off the rear of the body to fine date code

Strat pickup in dano

Danelectro Dano '59 or a 59-DC ...which is better?
I really want to get a hold of one of these Danelectro shorthorn reissues, but which one is a better guitar, the new reissued Dano '59 or one of the older reissues from the '90's a 59-DC? There aren't any local music stores in the NJ area that carry either, It's a tough call since I can't try them both out side-by-side.
FAB Distortion Pedal
To get the pedal working, do you need both the battery and the 9V cable?

NO
Keeping the Tape On
I bought one of the new '59 model about a week ago, and the tape is already starting to lift! I know that this is a general problem on Danos -- but only a week? It hasn't even been out of the practice room. Is there anything I can do -- other than send the guitar back to where I bought it?
WTT: Extremely clean Firefly body
I've got a very clean, unrouted Firefly body I'd like to trade for one with stock routing. I'm building a 6-string Firefly bass from parts as another project and would like to have a pre-routed body instead. Email for pics.
Coral Firefly wiring?
I'm putting together a Coral Firefly from parts and I need to know if the knobs closest to the bridge control the neck or bridge pickup. Can someone with a Firefly please help me on this?
Hi! Need to ask you something
Hi Spencer,
Have been trying to get in touch with you, I have lost my info for tax return. If you could would u please e-me the info for time worked, & booth rental please. I guess a copy of my 1099 would be fine. Just need to know what to turn in. My husband got me in a mess and didn't file taxes the last 3 yrs. I couldn't get by the shop to pick up the copy you left me before the shop closed, because I have been in and out of the hospital so much the past several months. Hope everything is going fine for you and the family.
Thanks Again,
Sharon

Neptune Bound...The Ultimate Danelectro Guide
Aug. 2, 2007 Update: The new Danelectro book is coming along trendously. The graphics and layout will be done by The Affusion Group {www.affusiongroup.com}. Here's the finished cover. I've just received the foreword from the great Vincent Bell. Most recently, Howard Daniel, an award winning writer {and son of Nathan "Nat" Daniel!} wrote a stellar introduction to the book defining his father's important achievements and innovations in the musical instrument industry and beyond. They'll be 100+ pages of RARE catalog reproductions, unseen factory pics, full details on patents and innovations, wild protypes, hard to find amp schematics, Dano' players, Dano' hits, and a great in-depth interview with Vincent Bell. There's a set-up article by Dan Erlewine, a comprehensive model & ID guide, and a full vintage value guide. Please check back soon for more updates, lots going on in the coming weeks. Thanks!

Me too jim, lots of other schematics on the dano sites, but can't find one for the "two concenric pots, no selector switch" option used on longhorn basses. It can't be hard but I have no electrical savvy so need help. Howard.
Info needed
My uncle has either a 1962 or 1963 DanElectro Guitar with matching Amp. (Amp DE DM10). I have tried to find info but have had no luck... Any help will be greatly appreciated - THANK YOU!

left handed
hi where to find a left handed danelectro available on the net ?????
Re: left handed
: hi where to find a left handed danelectro available on the net ?????
Good question. As a fellow lefty, I looked for a while. My experience is about all you're likely to find is a 56-U2 reissue. I couldn't find a new one (discontinued) but just watch eBay. I picked up a Surf Green one that is in good shape. They're not on there all the time, but probably one or more a week. When I bid on this one, there was a red one and a bright yellow one listed also. You'll probably have to drop about 3 bills to get one these days. Good luck!

Aiden, did you find any volume or tone pots for your nifty fifty? I need three also!@ bugdude67@yahoo.com

If you take the pots apart, you'll find that the shaft has pulled out of the sweeper disk a little causing the pot to malfunction. I pressed the shaft back in and used #10 superglue (StewMac.com) to strengthen the bond. Seems to be working so far. I emailed Danelectro for spare parts and they told me that because the amp is out of production they didn't have any parts and couldn't even guess where to get them. If your pots are totally shot, try Mouser.com. They have some that I think could be adapted to that board. Measure all the old pot's dimensions (metric) and compare them to what the spec sheets have from Mouser. I would have gone that route, but I got impatient and wanted this amp out of my shop. Good luck!

Daddy-O Current Draw
Anyone know how much current the Daddy-O pedal draws? My multi-power supply is getting dangerously close to its 450mA limit, and I'd like to know if attaching my Daddy-O to it as well is going to make me smell burning!
Thanks
James
Re: Daddy-O Current Draw
I'll answer myself in case anyone else finds this! I've measured it to be about 6mA, max 7mA.

BLT slap echo noise
The pedal sounds like its supposed to when I use a 9v battery, but when I hook it up to a 9v adapter, it gets really, really noisy. Its not even worth using its so noisy. Danelectro has a "no hum" 9v adapter, would that fix the problem? http://www.zzounds.com/item--DANDA1. Also, why would it hum like that when I hook up the adapter?
