Danelectro Silvertone Model 1448 Model Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar and Amplifier Set (1966), made in Neptune, NJ, black lacquer with sparkles finish, masonite and pine body, poplar neck with, black tolex hard shell case.
This is the less expensive of two models of the classic Danelectro-made Silvertone 1960's guitar, sold through Sears and the original equipment for thousands of teen combos in the mid-1960's. The black sparkle-finished double cutaway asymmetrical body has sharp curling "horns", a white Masonite pickguard, one great-sounding Dan-O lipstick pickup with tone/volume controls and the traditional Dan-O chrome plate bridge with rosewood saddle. The short-scale neck is topped with a Silvertone logo "paddle" headstock with skate key-style tuners. This is an extremely nice example of these great sounding and playing little guitars, one of the best bargains in an American made vintage guitar still going.
Overall length is 35 in. (88.9 cm.), 13 in. (33 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 23 1/2 in. (597 mm.). Width of nut is 1 3/4 in. (44 mm.). Very clean overall; the guitar is nearly perfect with just a few small chips and some discoloration to the paper knob insets. The case has some edgewear and a tear to the speaker cloth, the cord has a spliced on plug but everything is solid and working. The guitar plays extremely well, a nice example of this garage band classic. Overall Excellent Condition.
