The Danelectro DGB56 Vintage '56 Baritone is built around a 29.75" scale length, giving it a tonal range that dips far deeper than a standard guitar while retaining excellent clarity and definition. This longer scale allows for lower tunings without the flabbiness or lack of tension often found in downtuned instruments. From cinematic textures to heavy riffs and surf-inspired licks, the DGB56 delivers tight, controlled low-end response with impressive articulation. It's the perfect choice for adding weight and character to your recordings or live performances without compromising playability or tone quality.
Equipped with a pair of Danelectro’s iconic high output, high impedance Lipstick pickups, the DGB56 provides a voice that’s instantly recognisable. These pickups are known for their bright, jangly top end and warm midrange punch, perfectly complementing the extended frequency range of the baritone format. The high output design ensures that even in lower tunings, the sound remains focused and present, cutting through mixes with ease. Combined with a simple control layout of a master volume, master tone, and three-way selector switch, you can quickly dial in anything from rich clean tones to gritty, overdriven textures.
Drawing on classic Danelectro design cues, the DGB56 features a distinctive single-cut body, dolphin headstock, and a striking “S” sound hole that immediately stands out. The Metallic Red finish adds a bold twist to its retro roots, making this guitar a real statement piece on stage or in the studio. Beyond its looks, this model includes a fully adjustable bridge for improved intonation and action adjustment, so your setup can match your exact playing preferences. It’s a smart blend of vintage appeal and practical features that delivers both form and function.
Even with its extended baritone scale, the Danelectro DGB56 is designed to feel natural and easy to play. The slim neck profile and smooth fret access across all 24 frets offer a comfortable experience from the first chord to the highest lead lines. Ideal for exploring lower tunings or layering creative textures, this guitar feels immediately familiar in your hands. Its lightweight construction reduces fatigue during long sessions, while balanced ergonomics ensure comfort whether you're sitting or standing. It's a reliable and engaging instrument that makes every session enjoyable.
