Danelectro – Convertible Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Black

The ’56 lipstick single-coil in the soundhole of the Convertible is a passive pickup with a coil wrapped around an Alnico VI magnet and then wrapped in tape. This pickup harkens back to the early days of rock-n-roll with a vintage, jangly, midrange punch and treble kick – ideal for rockabilly, country, or just good old rock-n-roll. The somewhat warmer Piezo bridge pickup complements the lipstick nicely as you switch back and forth. Or, when you are feeling adventurous – and we highly recommend adventure – you can combine the pickups with the “blend” control on the Convertible. Master volume and tone controls also give you additional tone-shaping options.
