Frequently Asked Questions
It's significantly darker and more powerful due to the baritone scale and higher output pickups, but retains the core Danelectro 'twang'.
Absolutely; it offers a smooth playing experience and good durability, standing up well to the lower tunings common with baritone guitars.
A clean amp with a bit of grit or a slightly overdriven tube amp will really let the Lipstick pickups shine; avoid overly bright or sterile amps.
