This is a very hard to come by guitar made in the late 50's by Danelectro. I believe it is a model 13xx or 14xx. I believe the pots date to '56. It is a bronze/copper color and it has the single cutaway "U series" body (which is a Masonite semi-solid type)
It has a bolt on 21 fret neck with a rosewood fingerboard (neck is straight w/ great action) and a chrome trapezoid bridge with adjustable rosewood stick saddle.
It also sports the "dolphin" style headstock, unlike most all danelectro & silvertones that had the more common "coke bottle" headstock.
It has wear, scratches, dents, etc. that you'd expect from a 50+ year old guitar. It is all original, no mods at all. I'm not extremely familiar with the danos and silvertones but I was told this guitar could fetch upwards of $900.
I can take more detailed pictures for anyone that's reasonably interested.
I would also be interested in trades for other guitars, musical instruments, shooting sports, and cameras. Feel free to make offers on cash and other things as well, worst I can say is "no". I have other guitars, etc. I can add depending on what items are being discussed.

The seller gives some useful info about this bass but does he really have to convince us that it is cool? C'mon?! This model is the bass version of the vaunted Danelectro Hornet and it is awesome! Just look at it - two lipstick pickups,...

This seller seems to have the same affliction that plagues many of us - he can't say no to a good deal on a cool funky guitar. Apparently he's come to the end of his journey (unless he has a whole lot more guitars than what he is showing here)....

These may be sold because this is good deal - 3 nice Silvertone by Danelectro Harmony guitars in Elk River MN for a total of $1000. That Dolphin head Silvertone/ Dano is a sweet lil axe. The Bobcat and 1448 and nice collectibles too. Vintage 50s-60s...

Nice colelctor's piece here - vintage U-1 in original unmolested shape. These can be nice players as well so I recommend them especially for bright chimey electric slide tones. The seller seems to know the value and worth of this guitar but is...
- Silvertone 1457 In Seattle - Rebuilt For $200
Sounds like this 1457 was prbably a basket case - repaired headstock and non-original lipstick pickups by GFS - but you still get a "mostly vintage" 1963 Dano for only $200. At least this one has the real SIlvertone "hatchet" headstock not the new reissue...
