Even acoustically, the instrument has a lively, resonant quality quite unlike a conventional solid-body guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinished in \u003cstrong\u003eLimo Black\u003c\/strong\u003e, Domino pairs that unconventional construction with wonderfully restrained 1950s styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLipstick pickups \u0026amp; baritone sound\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCentral to the Danelectro sound is a pair of distinctive \u003cstrong\u003elipstick single-coil pickups\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese provide the bright attack, chime and slightly woody character for which vintage-style Danelectros have become famous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a baritone instrument, those characteristics become particularly useful. The extended low register remains articulate rather than simply becoming darker and heavier, allowing Domino to produce enormous low notes while retaining definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControls are refreshingly straightforward, with a master volume, master tone and three-way pickup selector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result lends itself beautifully to surf, country, blues, indie, alternative, post-rock and cinematic playing, as well as any guitarist simply looking for an instrument that encourages a completely different approach to writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRestoration \u0026amp; setup\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike many Strays, Domino arrived as a well-used and well-loved instrument rather than a major restoration project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer rehabilitation therefore focused on preserving her character while ensuring the extended-scale setup performed properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring her time at The Stray Chord she received:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete professional baritone
