The Danelectro 59M NOS+ DC is one of those guitars that feels instantly familiar yet endlessly inspiring. A loving reissue of Danelectro’s famous “Shorthorn” double cutaway, it keeps all the quirky vintage charm of the late-50s design but upgrades it with modern reliability.
 
Built in Korea, it’s incredibly lightweight and comfortable, with a vibe that’s pure retro. The NOS+ Lipstick pickups are the star of the show here—bright and jangly, with extra punch and warmth compared to the original lipstick single coils. From twangy surf lines to rich blues tones, this guitar delivers a sound that cuts through but still feels smooth and musical.
 
If you’re looking for something different to slot into your collection—something that oozes vintage character without the vintage price tag—this 59M NOS+ DC is a serious contender.
