History: HI MY NAME IS CHRIS I LIVE IN THE U.K. I PLAY BASS GUITAR I HAVE BEEN PLAYING SINCE THE AGE OF 12 I AM NOW 57 SO QUITE A LONG TIME. I HAVE BEEN IN MANY BANDS OVER THE YEARS IN THE 60'S I TOURED EUROPE. I DID GIVE UP FOR A FEW YEARS THEN STARTED PLAYING AGAIN WITH LOCAL BANDS ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. THE 70'S FOR ME WAS THE BEST BANDS SUCH AS ZEPP THE WHO DEEP PURPLE AND STILL TO THIS DAY I AM A ROCKER.
Purchase: I PUT IN A BID ON E BAY FOR MY DANO IT WAS A USED BASS,I HAD ORIGINALLY BEEN LOOKING FOR A LONGHORN BUT FOUND THE DC . I BOUGHT IT FROM DAVE BRONZE WHO WAS ERIC CLAPTONS BASSIST, AND LIVES IN MY HOME TOWN. I WON THE BID AND PAID 190 POUNDS FOR IT A STEAL ITS GREAT
What I Like About This Unit: ITS LIGHT THE NECK IS GREAT THE TONES ARE NOT UNLIKE THAT OF A RICKENBACKER I ALSO HAVE ONE OF THEM. WHEN PLAYED THROUGH MY AGUILA RIG ITS PRETTY AWSOME. EVEN AT THE NEW PRICE ITS A GREAT BASS. BUY ONE.
What I Do NOT Like About The Danelectro DC Bass: THE STRAP BUTTONS ARE A BIT AWKWARD AND THE STRAP HAS FROM TIME TO TIME COME OFF. CAN FEED BACK DUE TO THE CONSTRUCTION BUT IF YOU CAN CONTROL IT THE SUSTAIN IS GREAT. NOT TOO SURE ABOUT THE TUNERS A BIT ON THE SMALL SIDE THEN IT DOES ADD TO THE LOOK OF THE BASS
DC Bass Quality: PRETTY BASIC CONSTRUCTION BUT STURDY AND SOLID IN FACT BY ALL THE RULES OF BASS CONSTRUCTION THIS BASS SHOULD NOT WORK, BUT BELEIVE ME IT DOES AND IT DOES IT VERY WELL.
Summary: MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BASS BUY ONE YOU WILL LOVE IT. IT SITS ALONGSIDE MY RICKENBACKER ON STAGE SO I THINK THAT SAYS IT ALL, AND THE RICKENBACKER IS ONE OF THE BEST BASSES YOU CAN GET SO I THINK THATS A GREAT TESTAMENT TO THIS CHEAP BUT FANTASTIC INSTRUMENT
