Product Description

The Danelectro 59DC Long Scale in Silver Sparkle is a distinctive bass guitar that marries vintage aesthetics with unique tonal characteristics. Featuring the classic double-cutaway “shorthorn” body design, this model stands out with its shimmering silver sparkle finish. Constructed with a lightweight masonite body and a maple neck, it offers comfortable playability, especially with its 34-inch scale length. Equipped with dual lipstick pickups, the bass delivers a clear low end and a pronounced midrange, providing a sound that’s both retro and versatile. While some players appreciate its unique tone and lightweight design, others have noted that the build quality reflects its budget-friendly origins, with components like tuners and bridges being areas of critique. Nonetheless, for those seeking a bass with character and a nod to vintage flair, the 59DC Long Scale presents an intriguing option.​

This bass is presented in fantastic condition with new La Bella strings fitted.
