Masonite rules!,

This review is from: Neptune Bound: The Ultimate Danelectro Guitar Guide (Paperback)
An acceptable overview of all of the guitars and some of the amps. Still, the data is uneven (particularly when dealing with scale lengths, which are quoted about 50% or the time)But, it is a beginning and eventually, all the info will be printed. In the meantime, it will have to suffice.

This review is from: Neptune Bound: The Ultimate Danelectro Guitar Guide (Paperback)
"After briefly looking over the book it is evident that this was a monumental task. It covers Danelectro in far greater detail than most books covering other makers. I know I will find it fascinating to sit down and read the full story." George Gruhn "Neptune Bound fills a tremendous gap in the electric guitar literature. Till now, Danelectro has probably been best known for "beginners' guitars" characterized by low cost, "funky" design and, by those in the know, cool sound. This encyclopedic book lays out the full story, the heart of which is the string of pioneering innovations that my dad, Danelectro founder Nathan I. Daniel, brought to the guitar and amplifier industry years ahead of the competition. This is a must-read, landmark book." Howard Daniel, son of Danelectro founder Nathan Daniel. "A Masonite atom bomb! Brings new meaning to the term "ultimate guitar guide. A true labor of love and probably the most thoroughly researched book on a single guitar brand ever." Skip Henderson, founder New York Guitar Show, City Lights Music." For many guitar players of the baby boom generation, Danelectro was their first electric guitar. Now they get to read the story of inventor and innovator Nate Daniel in this encyclopedic tome of Danelectro history." Eric C. Shoaf

Great book,
By Bandini "Algernon" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Neptune Bound: The Ultimate Danelectro Guitar Guide (Paperback)
Pretty much covers every Silvertone or Danelectro produced, but strangely, I couldn't find anything about the Silvertone 1446 with mini humbuckers. ?? Too cool a guitar to be overlooked. Also includes reproductions of original advertisements, schematics, and owner's manuals, along with mint vs. beat-up prices for all guitars. An essential book for the lover of these cool guitars.
