{"product_id":"danelectro-fifty-niner-baritone-black-top","title":"Danelectro Fifty Niner Baritone — Black Top","description":"\u003cp\u003eDanelectro essentially invented the electric baritone guitar back in 1956, so when they build one, they're drawing on a deeper well of experience with the format than just about anyone. The Fifty Niner Baritone takes the semi-hollow Shorthorn platform — spruce body, hardboard top, F-hole, center block for feedback control — and stretches it to a 29.75-inch scale tuned B to B, a perfect fourth below standard. That semi-hollow construction is a meaningful part of what separates this from other baritones on the market. The lightweight build adds a natural openness and resonance to the low end that you don't get from a solid body, while the center block keeps things tight enough to run gain without problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two high-output Lipstick pickups are wound hotter than standard Danelectro single coils, which makes sense for a baritone — you want the output to push the amp without losing the definition that makes lower tunings worth playing in the first place. A CRL 3-way selector and master volume\/tone keep the control layout simple. The Black Top finish gives you a black top over black sides, back, and neck with crème binding around the body — a clean, no-nonsense look that lets the shape do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you're a country player exploring those deep, twangy baritone voicings, a rock player who wants proper string tension at lower tunings, or a session player looking to add a genuinely different texture to recordings, the Fifty Niner Baritone fills a space that most guitar collections don't cover — and at a price that makes it easy to justify as a specialty instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody: Semi-hollow, Shorthorn double cutaway with F-hole\u003cbr\u003eBody Material: Spruce body, hardboard top, center block\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Black Top, black sides\/back\/neck\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Crème, top of body\u003cbr\u003eNeck: Maple, bolt-on\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood, 14\" radius [ASSUMPTION — carries over from standard Fifty Niner specs; confirm against physical unit]\u003cbr\u003eFrets: 24 [ASSUMPTION — consistent with all other Danelectro baritone models (56 Baritone, Vintage Baritone, Longhorn Baritone) but not explicitly confirmed from a primary source for this specific model.
