  • Here's a tone comparison between a 56' all-original Silvertone/Danelectro and an Electric Poet
    In both demos, you can hear the bridge and neck pickups (wired in series).
    The Electric Poet is a small hollow-body guitar inspired (like the Underdog model) by the 50s catalog guitars. During this time, companies like Sears, Montgomery Ward, and others offered a wide range of guitars through their catalogs, often manufactured by various guitar makers under various names such as Silvertone, Kay, Supro Regal, and Harmony. These guitars played a significant role in shaping the sound of popular music during that era.
    One of my favorite guitar tones is the 50s Danelectro/Silvertone lipstick pickups (wired in -series), a tone that was used for many classic tracks such as Led-Zeppelin's Kashmir, In My Time of Dying, White Summer, as well as classic tracks by Mark Knopfler, Ry Cooder, Rory Gallagher,
    Stevie Ray Vaughn and many more.
    The guitar's body is made from old salvaged Mediterranean Cypress or Jerusalem Pine. As always, I use mostly coniferous wood, which is lightweight and has a warm and super responsive tone,'
    The neck is made from Mediterranean Cypress with a wild rosewood fingerboard and a scarf joint construction for extra stability and to prevent breaking or snapping.
    The guitar is a reimagined 50s catalog guitar model with high-quality craftsmanship, hardware pickups, and, of course, lumber.
    The pickups are my own lipsticks-hand wound and hand made with the correct size Alnico VI sand cast magnets and 42 AWG enamel-plated wire, wound directly over the magnet without a bobbin, just like the original ones.
    The Electric Poet offers a wide range of distinctive tones, making it a versatile instrument for any musician. With three combinations of in-series wiring, it delivers a warm tone and increased volume. And with three single coil modes, it produces a classic 50s lipstick sounds. This versatility is a testament to the guitar's unique design and craftsmanship.
    The book-matched tops are special exotic pieces of lumber from my collection, which include ancient Judean desert Acacia, Ancient Olive, Jerusalem pine, and salvaged Wild Rosewood.

    Nice playing. Had mid sixty's with amp in case, not as nice as yours but not bad for blues.
