Pickup configuration
Dual passive Lipstick pickups provide a neck unit 20% hotter and a bridge unit 30% hotter than traditional Danelectro designs.

Independent shopping perspective
Built for a brighter, more forceful DANO voice, the black Dan O. Cool combines two higher-output 1950s-spec Lipstick pickups with the brand’s hardboard-and-spruce-frame construction. The neck pickup is 20% hotter and the bridge pickup 30% hotter than traditional Danelectro designs, adding drive for fuzz, overdrive, compression and modulation while retaining bright highs and quick attack. A bolt-on hard maple neck, C profile, rosewood fingerboard, 14-inch radius, 21 medium-jumbo frets and 25-inch scale support rhythm parts, leads and layered effects work.
