With the Summer NAMM show kicking off in Nashville later this week, some brands have already started teasing and announcing brand-new products that attendees can expect to see on the show floor. Yesterday, Danelectro joined that list, with the release of the new ‘66T and ‘59X guitars.

The ‘66T is a semi-hollowbody guitar, outfitted with a Wilkinson vibrato, a vintage-style single-coil pickup in the neck position, and a twin lipstick humbucker in the bridge position. The humbucker is coil-splittable, via push/pull control.

Players can pick up the ‘66T for $749 USD in four finishes—Transparent Orange, Transparent Blue, Gloss Black, or 3 Tone Sunburst—or grab an identical baritone version of the model, called the ‘66BT Baritone, for $799 USD.

Danelectro’s brand new solidbody ‘59X, meanwhile, iterates on the brand’s iconic ‘59 model with the addition of an offset, high-output, humbucker-sized, single-coil neck pickup, which can be split via push/pull tone control. In the bridge position, the ‘59X features a lipstick humbucker. Players looking for a tremolo can also opt to pick up the ‘59XT, which features one built in.
