This is a very hard to come by guitar made in the late 50's by Danelectro. I believe it is a model 13xx or 14xx. I believe the pots date to '56. It is a bronze/copper color and it has the single cutaway "U series" body (which is a Masonite semi-solid type)
It has a bolt on 21 fret neck with a rosewood fingerboard (neck is straight w/ great action) and a chrome trapezoid bridge with adjustable rosewood stick saddle.

It also sports the "dolphin" style headstock, unlike most all danelectro & silvertones that had the more common "coke bottle" headstock.

It has wear, scratches, dents, etc. that you'd expect from a 50+ year old guitar. It is all original, no mods at all. I'm not extremely familiar with the danos and silvertones but I was told this guitar could fetch upwards of $900.

I can take more detailed pictures for anyone that's reasonably interested.

I would also be interested in trades for other guitars, musical instruments, shooting sports, and cameras. Feel free to make offers on cash and other things as well, worst I can say is "no". I have other guitars, etc. I can add depending on what items are being discussed.
