If you love the sound of Led Zepplin’s Kashmir, this is the very model Jimmy Page used on that record. A Danelectro U2 from 1963! This one is super clean and comes to us from a large collection. It plays beautifully and sounds as good as it looks. Just listen to our samples. Also click here to hear Jimmy Page play on one just like it.

The Danelectro guitars created a unique sound in the guitar world. To this day they stand on their own. This one is a rare condition gem that plays amazingly well. We all have truly enjoyed having this one around the shop. It appears to be all original and sounds awesome, great twang and very alive. Add a classic to your arsenal.
I have to say I was really taken with this guitar. It's just fun to play and sounds awesome. Now I know why they are so popular.
