Danelectro '58 Longhorn Black

Instantly identifiable Dano looks and sound

While it may have not sold the numbers other classic bass guitar designs have, the double-cutaway, short-scale Danelectro bass guitar has an incredibly identifiable tone all their own. The Danelectro Longhorn Bass captures this vibe for you in spades. Built firmly in the vintage design of the older Danos, the Longhorn Bass gives you the thumpy, round tone you'd expect from a vintage-style, 29.75" scale bass.

A sound every bass player needs

The Danelectro Longhorn Bass is a favorite among pick players for its percussive attack and deep tone. Finger players love its warm and smooth sound. It has enough punch to make slappers happy and to cut through at a rock gig. A pair of high-output Lipstick pickups deliver fat vintage tone on command. And a pair of stacked volume/tone pots let you sculpt your tone to perfection. Take it from bassists the Danelectro Longhorn Bass has all the sounds you need.

Construction updates for modern reliability

Like a great many vintage bass designs, older Danos can sometimes fall victim to reliability issues. But you'll be able to gig your Danelectro Longhorn Bass without worry, thanks to modern updates that bring the bass up to today's high-quality production standards. Each instrument is gone over and set up in Danelectro's California warehouse for the best playability possible.
