Very good condition.
All electronics functioning, amp works.
Some wear on back of neck and edges.
Case latches and hinges work fine.
We believe all original although the speaker is questionable but it is period specific.
All works.
Some wear and minor scratches to be expected of a guitar of this age.

The amp is an amazing 3 watts with a 5" speaker.
This early 60's Silvertone made by Danelectro is a one pickup, amp-in-case model.
This guitar is a masonite over pine construction with a black silver flake finish, a single coil lipstick tube-style pickup, in-line scoop headstock, Brazilian rosewood fretboard, fixed four-way adjustable chromed brass bridge with a Brazilian rosewood saddle, a metal nut, a white masonite pickguard on which the knobs and input jack are located and white tolex binding.
The short scale, steel reinforced straight neck, and the fast action on this guitar make it a real joy to play.
This guitar is also about five pounds so it is easy to carry from gig to gig and it is balanced perfectly for playing.
TUNERS:
Six-on-a-side headstock
NECK:
Bolt-on, straight poplar neck with dot inlays on a Brazilian rosewood fretboard, 18 frets, and 24″ scale.
The back of the neck has wear to the finish.
The headstock, a logo’d, in-line, scoop design has very minimal paint wear at the edges.
Steel rods keep the neck straight.
PICKUPS:
One single coil, lipstick tube-style pickup.
This guitar has a single coil clear, clean quality with a warm, punchy bridge pickup tone that is good for rock and roll, funk, country, blues, soul, etc.
There are two pots for volume and tone.
Each black plastic knob has a cardboard insert on top with straight line indicator and a tone or volume label depending on the knob’s function.
All of the electronics are clean and fully functional.
