SILVERTONE/DANELECTRO MODEL: U1
Sears model 1452
1959

This is a Silvertone made by Danelectro. It's part of Danelectro's U1 line. The guitar is in great shape: the neck is straight and all the electronics work well. It's got a few nicks here and there and one minor ding on the headstock. This is a 3/4 size guitar. If you look closely you'll see it's actually a brown sparkle finish. The guitar was made in January 1959. This is the "coke-bottle" headstock model with a lipstick pickup. As far as I can tell, it's completely original except the two screws holding the pick guard have been replaced.

Here's the original description from the 1961 Sears catalog:
