NOTICE:  This guitar is one of the very first reissues of Danelectro guitars in 1998.  I was extremely excited about these reissues of my very favorite guitars and at being given one of the very first distributorships by Danelectro, ...until my health required that I downsize my shop.  I have known Danelectros expertly for a very long time.
