Danelectro Vintage Baritone Electric Guitar in Gloss Black

Danelectro burst back onto the scene in 1998 with a brilliant run of reissues, lovingly reviving their quirky golden-era guitars. Fast forward to today, and things have only got better. Rather than simply recreating the past, Danelectro have turned things up a notch — doubling down on everything that made those originals so special. If you’re after a deep, low-tuned beast with bags of retro charm, the Vintage Baritone should be on your shortlist.

High-output Lipstick pickups

You can’t talk about Danelectro without mentioning those legendary Lipstick single-coils. According to the brand themselves, the high-output, high-impedance set in this model make it their “best sounding baritone ever.” You still get all that unmistakable ‘50s character — cutting highs, punchy mids and a tight, controlled low-end — just with more oomph! And with master volume and tone controls, plus a 3-way selector, it’s easy to dial things in and switch it up on the fly.

Vintage vibe, modern performance

Danelectro have kept things reassuringly old-school but with a subtle contemporary edge. A straight string pull runs from the distinctive “Dolphin” headstock over an aluminium nut and onto a fully adjustable bridge, which means solid tuning stability and accurate intonation wherever you’re playing.

Crafted for comfort

With its sleek, comfortable Maple neck and smooth 24-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard, the Danelectro Vintage Baritone feels great in the hands whether you’re noodling at home or playing a full set. The lightweight Poplar frame and Masonite body keep things nice and manageable too — ideal for longer sessions on stage.

• Semi-hollow single-cut body: A classic shape that’s light, well-balanced and dripping with mojo — making it super easy to play whether you’re on stage or kicking back at home.
• 29.75” baritone scale length: Designed for lower tunings, this extended scale keeps everything feeling tight, defined and responsive. It’s perfect for deep, rumbling riffs that cut through!
• High-output, high-impedance Lipstick pickups: Danelectro’s legendary single-coils, delivering that unmistakable chime and bite but with added power and punch.
• Fully adjustable bridge: Dial in your setup with ease thanks to precise height and intonation adjustment.
