NGD Danelectro `56 Baritone

Post by Fenderguy » Sun Jul 02, 2017 1:24 pm

Hey guys. I was visiting the local guitarshop the other day. I was planning to buy a Boss Waza pedal, but ended up buying a baritone instead. I knew it the second I picked it up, I couldn`t leave without it. It plays and sounds incredible!
I tried some Danelectros a couple of years back, but they really, really sucked. This one is on a completely different level.
I actually ended up using it on 10-12 songs on my gig the day after I got it :)

Here`s some noodling through my Princeton:

Sounds amazing! Such snap to the notes. Really impressed!

Do you know the scale on these? What kind of strings?

Sounds great. Great tasteful playing good sir! I still don't own a baritone. Never have. I need one.

Hey, thanks guys!

Raphael, the hair is gone, but the beard stays :freako:

Kosmo, thanks man.
I think it`s got a 29.75 scale, but I`m not quite sure. The strings are D`Addario 13-62 if I remember correctly.

BoringPostcards, go out and buy one now. I promise, you won`t regret it ;) And thanks!

I've been wondering about these for a while now. I had a Jerry Jones for a long time which I sold a few years ago. I've regretted it MUCH ever since. I had an earlier Dano Korean baritone at the same time and felt it was a lot below the Jerry Jones in terms of feel and build quality. It sounds like these newer Danelectros are a lot different. I am still a little put off by the scale length though. I'd much rather have the 28" of the Jerry Jones.

I`d love to try a JJ one day, heard nothing but good this about them.

Here`s another short clip of mine:
