The '59X12 takes the best of the traditional Danelectro 12-string vibe and adds modern features for killer performance.
It features a lightweight, shorthorn-shape with semi-hollow composite/plywood body, with a Dual-Lipstick® Humbucker Pair in the bridge and a large Single Coil in the neck. A push/pull tone knob lets you split the coils on the bridge pickup for even more sounds. A tuneable stop tailpiece makes the '59X12 one of the most dependable electric 12-strings you'll find—and the most affordable!
We should also mention that restringing is a breeze compared to many other electric 12s, with alternating top-mount and through-body mounting!
