Danelectro Danoblaster Innuendo Gloss Black 2001 Electric Guitar

This is a Danelectro Danoblaster Innuendo electric guitar in Gloss Black. Made in Korea, in 2001 this guitar consists of a Plywood body, a Maple neck and a 21-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include A 6 saddle tremolo bridge and a set of sealed tuning machines. A trio of Danelectro single-coils are featured, these are wired to a master volume and tone control, with this four effects are built in including a distortion, chorus, tremolo and echo, these are activated by the push/push switches and have controls for distortion filter and a tremolo speed control.

The Maple neck plays very well, with what might be described as a ‘C’ profile that provides comfortable playability in all registers. The Satin finish to the rear ensures that navigation of the 25” scale is a smooth and effortless affair. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its 12” radius offers a nicely flat and consistent playing surface right the way up the register.

The trio of Single-Coils installed in this instrument deliver classic tones, the bridge pickup provides bright and glistening trebles with plenty of spank, power chords sound gritty, whilst also providing soaring lead tones. However, with subtler amp settings the bridge offers a bright, glassy clean tone. The middle pickup produces bright trebles and full warm bass, and lends itself well to rhythm tones. The neck pickup has rounded creamer tones great for chordal phrasings or quick jazz style lines, whilst also handling higher gain settings masterfully, offering plenty of room for tonal sculpting.

The addition of the built-in effects adds a vast tonal landscape for the player to explore, the tremolo adds a pulsing/stuttering texture, whether your style is a classic textural vibe or unexpectedly experimental this tremolo effect can offer an interesting sound to your tone. The distortion offered is warm and creamy, with tons of response to your volume knob or pick attack and with the added filter control a wide scoop is available. With the echo, you get the note clarity of a full fledged echo pedal all at the finger tips whilst the chorus offers a spacious modulated tone with deep lush modulation.
