Though renowned guitar luthier Jerry Jones may have closed the doors to his high end Danelectro replica company in 2011, this 12-string Neptune is a stellar example of why the late brand retains such a loyal following. The striking Gold Metallic is a beautiful complement to the classic styling of the guitar, and its lipstick pickups sound incredibly full in all five positions. The quality-related problems that plague original Danelectros are simply not present on this instrument; it's a safe, solid, fun way into an electric 12-string guitar. Comes with the original hardshell case.
