Just arrived 🛩️ a 1967 Coral Vincent Bell Electric Sitar made in Neptune NJ by @danelectro_official - Link in our profile. - One of the coolest and most interesting oddball instruments of the 1960s, the Coral Electric Sitar has long since gone beyond novelty status and proved to be a practical and surprisingly timeless creation. It was the most elaborate of the many designs East Coast session guitarist Vinnie Bell created for Nathan Daniel's Danelectro organization in the 1960s. Wanting to use the sitar sound on sessions but not grapple with the complex original, Bell adapted the graduated "Sitarmatic" bridge that combines the Indian instrument's traditional buzzing, twangy tonality with the playability of an electric guitar. - - - - - #coralelectricsitar #coralsitar #coralsitarguitar #ownthetone #tonallyawesome #electricsitar #electricsitarguitar #retrofretvintageguitars (at Retrofret Vintage Guitars) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpLLFlguEnk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
