NEW DANELECTRO SITAR - RED CRACKLE
Reissue of the famous Danelectro big Sitar of the 1960’s.
The Danelectro Sitar (also known as the Coral Electric Sitar) is a 6-string electric guitar designed to mimic the buzzing, resonant sound of a traditional Indian sitar.
Key Features & Design
-
Bridge: Features a specialized Gotoh sitar "buzz bridge" that creates a shimmering, sitar-like drone and harmonic rattle.
-
Sympathetic Strings: Includes an extra "mini-harp" course of 13 sympathetic drone strings with their own lipstick pickup and individual volume/tone controls.
-
Pickups: Equipped with three single-coil Lipstick pickups (neck, bridge, and sympathetic strings).
-
Neck & Scale: Built with a 24.75-inch scale length, a bolt-on C-shaped maple neck, and a 21-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard.
-
Body: Features a lightweight hollow composite and plywood body, frequently styled in vintage crackle finishes (such as Red Crackle).
-
