Danelectro DC-59 Value?
I am trying to help a friend with the sale of an approx. 3 to 4 year old Danelectro DC-59 reissue (wine red) model. I can EBay it, but I am also considering buying it and keeping it in my collection.
It is in good condition but has been played, thus has surface scratches (nothing into the paint) the accent tape is pulling up slightly in the deep groove areas, again nothing out of the ordinary, modest fret wear on the first three frets, still some life. Overall good condition, and will clean up well, but not outstanding or "mint".
The problem I am having is determining a fair value if I want to keep it. I have been researching EBay, the web etc... and this particular guitar is kind of in a wierd situation. It appears they no longer make them. As best I can tell, new they went for around $200 to $250. Used the prices are all over and there aren't enough of them I can find on completed auctions and what not to determine what is a fair but good price for one of these.
Any insight is appreciated.

Do you still have that amp with cab too? My grandfather passed one down to my dad then me. it burned (fire) and i want to replace it. i've been heartbroken over it for ten years now. i'm 25 now. I've been looking and looking. any info will be of great help anyway. thank you so much
Re: I have a DS 50 if your interested????
: : Is anyone selling a Danelectro Nifty Fifty or Dirty Thirty amp? I'm looking to buy one because there cool looking.
I have one in good shape especially considering how old it is. New tubes. One speaker went bad and I had to replace it but I saved the origional. Sounds very good. I am a bass player but I have had this for almost 30 years in my room. I would say it sounds better than a twin. Missing one knob. This amp was well taken care of.
Re: I have a DS 50 if your interested????
if this is the nifty fifty i'm willing to give you 40 and up for it.
Re: I have a DS 50 if your interested????
yes, i want it!! call me please 484-547-3491

Danelectro 12/6 Double Neck Needs Switch
I have just gotten a re-issue 12/6 with a bad neck selector switch. Am unable to find a satifactory replacement toggle; trying to keep the Dan-O look. So, will be moving the pickup selector toggle to neck selector and using a rotary to re-wire the pickups. Am thinking a Danelectro Select-O-Matic switch may due what I want. Anyone have any specs/diagrams of Select-O-Matic switch; # Poles, # Positions, et al? Maybe a digram with Select-O-Matic model guitar?

nifty fifty amp
ive seen one on ebay, it looks great, has anyone played one.
Re: nifty fifty amp
: ive seen one on ebay, it looks great, has anyone played one.
I've had one for 28 years where it has never left my room but once for a gig. I re-tubed it and replaced one speaker and it is one of the best amps I have ever played on. It reminds me of a Fender twin but there is no master volume so there is no distortion of couse. Does anyone know what it is worth now?
Re: nifty fifty amp
yeah theres one on ebay now, i wonder how much its worth has good reviews
Re: nifty fifty amp
The Achilles heel is the tiny 8" speaker so I built mine into a combo with a 10" Celestion and a 10" Eminence of 60 watt rating as an experiment. Now it goes loud enough for gigs without "bad" speaker breakup - in fact there's NO speaker breakup!Clean to die for. Oh yeah - I also covered it in leopardskin fur,it's the koolest!
Re: nifty fifty amp
Do you think there would be a problem running it in to a four- ten cabinet?

Danoblaster: What are the knobs for?
Can anyone tell me what the four knobs on my Danoblaster are for? Believe it or not, I found this guitar in the trunk of an old car. I figured out the tone and volume but the other two don't seem to do anything.
Appreciate any help.
Re: Danoblaster: What are the knobs for?
It's a guitar that includes built-in effects... The knobs control them... you need to put a battery into the guitar, in case it wasn't included... Cheers
Neptune Bound...The Ultimate Danelectro Guide UPDATE
BOOK UPDATE...July 30, 2006. The new book is coming along incredibly well. I have so much content it's mindblowing. My most recent "I cannot believe this" moment is I now have in my posession the most in-depth and revealing interview ever conducted with the great Vincent Bell. Amazing stuff, from a truly wonderful man. I cannot tell you how proud I am to have such an important figure in the music business participate in this book. I had scheduled an interview for the book with Vinnie, to be conducted by Paul Bechtoldt, but he failed to follow up and get it done. This time, it's not only done, it's incredible. Also I put together the most complete and up to date vintage Danelectro value guide ever compiled and also the most complete dating and ID guide. The vintage catalog section is GIGANTIC and includes some very rare Danelectro, Coral, & Silvertone catalogs dating from 1956-1970 including some rare 1958 NAMM flyers/posters! The color section is incredible showing the rarest of the rare and the coolest of the cool. That doesn't even begin to cover it, there's LOTS more Dano' fun in this book, GUARANTEED!!! For book updates and details on reserving your copy please visit cityguitar.com. See you soon...Doug Tulloch.

What are 6 choices on Selectamatic on 12 string Hodad
Subject says it all. What are the combinations on the Selectamatic switch on a 12 string Hodad?
Re: What are 6 choices on Selectamatic on 12 string Hodad
: Subject says it all. What are the combinations on the Selectamatic switch on a 12 string Hodad?
If the Select-O-Matic doesn't change from the 56-U3, danguitars.com has the selections as: 1. neck & bridge, 2. neck, 3. neck & middle, 4. middle, 5. middle & bridge, 6. bridge, 7. toggle bypass.
Would you happen to have a wiring diagram of your Hodad? Am updating my double neck with a Select-O-Matic switch and need to get it right.
Alternative pickups for Danos
I've got a reissue DC3 which I love, but it's pickups are a little on the weak side. I'm getting two Kent Armstrongs for the neck and middle positions, but I'd like something hotter for the bridge slot. Any recommendations? Doesn't have to be a lipstick tube, my Dano is way modded already :).
