Man, between these new Guitars and those killer pedals that Danelectro released recently, they really have stepped up their game with some quality, affordable gear! 👍🏻🎸😎
🛒- Sweetwater - Sweetwater - sweetwater.sjv.io/KjAY9A Hi everyone, this is the Danelectro 64 guitar! Just some information on the video. I shot the final bits on the Kemper (clean/dirty) as my neighbours came home and they weren't overly happy about noise. 😂 The profile I used is one I made of the amp on my Kemper video which is the Marshall and Rode M3 and my favourite settings.
Great demonstration of this unique guitar! The pairing of the P90 and a humbucker is different but it works. This would be a great addition to anyone’s collection! Thanks Shane and Danelectro!🎸🎸🎸🎸🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾👍🏾
I grew up remembering this brand as a budget guitar. As nice as these new ones are, at $800 US, that buys a LOT of guitar nowadays. A Mexi Strat leaves almost enough change from that $800 to throw in a Katana amp as well! Still, that Dano is lovely & sounds nice.
As Fender keeps pushing their prices up and out of my reach I am forced to look at alternatives. This has been added to a very short list of new potentials. Thank you for the review.
Get a G&L Tribute if you want a Fender sound at a good price. Alternatively you can get a Squier, shield the body cavity with aluminum foil, setup and intonation, and install locking tuners and Seymour Duncan pickups. If you can't do those things yourself, do some research and find out what a local music shop would charge.
Could've sworn you already reviewed this guitar? Not complaining mind you, do more if you want. Does the zero fret help the bottom F barre chord play any easier? Supposedly an advantage
I did a live stream with it a month ago but this is the first review. I did demo the '84 as well. :-) . I haven't really noticed any changes with the zero fret to be honest. I will try it again and see if it's any easier. :-)
Excellent review as always mate. Love this guitar definitely the Mosrite style imo and you mentioned Hallmark, I believe Hallmark was started in the 60's by someone who had worked with Semie Moseley .. My first guitar , a Dutch made Egmond Scout has a zero fret , always thought it as a European 50's / 60's thing . Beautiful guitar Shane 👍😉🎸
Great stuff! Not actually a P90 in the neck though, right? I might have missed you clarifying this. I *think* these P90-looking single coils are really just Danelectro's own take on a single coil, fwiw.
That is one seriously sexy beast! Looking forward to part two, really wanna see how the bridge p'up sounds in split coil mode...might just have to get myself one of these!
I am trying to think of the new wave band that use these Mosrite style guitars was it Television, ? or Richard Hell and the voidoids anyway sounds very lively and ringing a good review mate
Hmm... I can't find another 64'xt like yours. All of the 64xt's I can find have the smaller headstock with the "D" on the headstock. Maybe because it's left handed.
I would love one, but try to get one of these in Australia. I have approached all the Australian distribution sources as listed on Danelectro site, and none can confirm they will even get them. Can't even get one from overseas as Danelectro forbid international sales as part of their conditions. Please someone tell me how to actually get one. In the awesome candy red as on their website.
Hey Shane awesome demo on a quality axe. Any chance you could i a review on an artist brand strat? I’ve got a lefty with 3 Wilkinson single coil pickups and I just want to know you’re opinion on this guitar. They give you 3 months to decide whether you like or not cheers keep up the great work cheers 🍻🇦🇺🎸🍺
@@jayceburns8246 I own the 64xt, if this gentleman is demo'ing the (non-xt) 64, I'm noticing they both have the wilkinson trem. One thing I did just notice is the 64 has the zero fret, the xt doesn't. But other than that and the headstock, I don't see any differences. Very interesting.
@@BrianPremo It seems the '64 has an solid Alder body while the '64xt is chambered plywood with hardboard top. I notice a slight change in the pick guard shape as well. The '64 had optional Bigsby unit.
