The neck is the standard Danelectro style with a vertical logo and openback Waverly strip tuners. Intended to be used with or without a pickup (hence the name), the Convertible guitars have more body response than any other Nathan Daniel design, and actually are a fairly functional acoustic guitar. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese were the most basic Danelectro guitar offered (original list price with the pickup was $65.00), but have proved enduringly popular with a unique tone all their own, both plugged and unplugged. A few years back renowned singer\/songwriter J.J. Cale was seen using a Convertible extensively, inspiring new interest in this unusual Danelectro creation.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 38 1\/2 in. (97.8 cm.), 13 1\/4 in. (33.7 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 2 in. (5.1 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 25 in. (635 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5\/8 in. (41 mm.). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVery clean and all original except newer Straplok buttons, some slight chipping to the sound hole edge, and very light wear only. A bit of typical top sinkage, but less than most of these. A really nice example that plays well and sounds better -- even acoustically -- than it has any technical reason to! Excellent + Condition.","brand":"Danelectro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853291507852,"sku":"6128","price":850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_ff3272f9-afc0-4c62-9db7-9f537c5d0f38.jpg?v=1774333303","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/danelectro-convertible-acoustic-electric-guitar-1962-6128","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
