Danelectro - 66-12, 12-string Electric Guitar - Transparent 3-Tone Burst
The Danelectro 66-12 12-string electric guitar was introduced in 1966 and quickly became a favorite among folk, rock, and psychedelic musicians for its versatile sound and vintage style. Today's Danelectro 66-12 reissue brings those same great tones and playability to your stage and studio. Its semi-hollow alder body provides a warm, snappy, and resonant tone that will enhance any track. The offset neck single-coil and dual-lipstick bridge humbucker pickups with coil-splitting give you a wide range of 12-string sounds to work with, from sparkling clean tones to crunchy bite. And the C-shaped maple neck and pau ferro fingerboard provide comfort and easy fret access. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, the Danelectro 66-12 is a great choice for any 12-string player.

The Danelectro 66-12 comes with a master volume control, a master tone control, and a 3-way switch. But don't be fooled by its streamlined setup: there are tons of sweet-and-salty sonic textures to be found within this unassuming 12-string. The secret lies in its vintage-styled offset single-coil neck pickup and dual-lipstick bridge humbucker. When you're running through a dirty amp, you'll get a ton of crunch and low-end response without losing definition. Meanwhile, a clean amp can create awesome jazz tones. If that's not enough, the master volume control is a push/pull pot that splits the humbucker for added spank, sparkle, and chime.
Danelectro is known for its instantly recognizable body designs and avant-garde styling. The 66-12 is no different. This reverse-offset body shape simply drips with vintage vibe and distinctive Danelectro styling. The semi-hollow construction adds sustain and extra presence to the sound. Thanks to the alder centerblock, it won't feed back as easily under high gain. The maple neck has a curvy headstock, die-cast tuners and a 14" radius pau ferro fingerboard that work together to complete the vintage look of the Danelectro 66-12.
