Twang Gang Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Never thought about what was inside them before. I get the similarity to the jangly surf music from the early sixties. Not sure how Page came up with the idea to use a Danelectro in recording Zepplin, but I am sure I've read he did a few times.
Marky Forrest Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 Interesting and educational video, Rabs. I never cared much for their tone but it's cool to know what's inside them.

According to what I saw at the Play It Loud exhibition at the Met he used it for the Yardbirds and for Zepplin on Kashmir, When the Levee Breaks, In My Time of Dying, and Black Mountain Side. Tuning was DADGAD.
jaxson50 Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Glen Campbell used Danelectro guitars for studio work, usually in drop tunings, Carrol Kaye loaned him her Danelectro baritone when he recorded Wichita Lineman which is what he played the solo with.
