Think ‘Paint it Black’ by The Rolling Stones and Norwegian Wood by The Beatles where, up until then, guitar players knuckled down to the challenge of studying the approach to the sitar and, whilst very rewarding, it’s often complicated related music theory.
Played like a normal six string guitar, the Danelectro Baby Sitar quickly created a new trend of ‘raga rock’, allowing guitar players to effortlessly and accurately blend modern guitar styles with authentic sitar sounds.
Finished in a gorgeous all-over ‘Vintage Aqua’ finish with contrasting white decorated ‘Curly Cue’ scratchplate and again, with the ‘thermometer-shape’ headstock, the new gourd shaped Danelectro Baby Sitar, features the same original, simplistic design and affordability that appealed to guitar players back in the day.
The secret to the Baby Sitar’s incredibly accurate and authentic traditional sitar sound is the Goto® ‘buzz bridge’ with scalloped grooves for each string and adjustable to allow for the amount of required sitar effect.
Installed close to the bridge, the single Danelectro lipstick pickup with its iconic warm, open low-end, searing mids, classic Dano chime and clarity, is the perfect choice to replicate and enhance lush, undulating chords, single note lead lines and vibrato bends in pure sitar style.
Additional hardware includes single volume/tone controls and vintage style, smooth-geared, chrome machine heads and a precision-cut aluminium nut ensuring accurate tuning and intonation. Like all Danelectro guitars, the new Baby Sitar with a slick, high gloss neck and smooth 21 fret rosewood fingerboard, plays like a dream.
The fun aspect of the Danelectro Baby Sitar is of course enormous, whilst also inviting new sonic songwriting territories and a serious and unique live/studio instrument that excels with chorus, flange, reverb, delay, overdrive and alternative tunings.

If a product is defective upon arrival, or the wrong item was received, all the shipping fees will be covered by us and we will give you a store-credit refund on the original order. For defective items, Prymaxe reserves the right to refuse the return if we determine the reason for the unit failing was not covered under the warranty (i.e., if the item was damaged due to user fault or error). If you feel your item was damaged in shipping, please take plenty of pictures of the damaged box and item and immediately contact us so we can open a claim with the shipping company.
Please be very diligent with testing your defective item. Be sure to try other guitars, power supplies, cables, and amps. We also request that you take a video of the item not working. If we receive your item, test it, and find it to be working, we will give you a refund minus the cost of shipping both ways.

If you feel you sent the package within a reasonable time frame, but it arrived late due to the shipping company’s error, please immediately contact us to make an appeal before we refuse the package.
