Re: No More Dan-O Guitars...

yeah, yeah, the countertop jokes. I'm sure all in fun, but that's part of the Dan-O appeal, that hollow body with plywood sandwiched between two pieces of masonite.

The DC12 is a great 12 string and has lots of jangle. The dial DC model (DC-3?) is waaaay cool too, and I plan on snagging one up soon.

As for the bass, I wouldn't want the body any other way. That bass is lighter than my Surfcaster 6 string by far!

The Brownsville Thug and Choirboy are of that same construction. For being cheapie guitars, they really do not play that bad...replace the pups with a P-90 or a mini hum, you got a rather cool slide/blues guitar.

Granted they aren't as cheap as the RI Danos, but the Jerry Jones guitars are a cool alternative. They sell for around $600, but they're made in USA, have some nice features like adjustable saddles, trussrods and some cool switching too.

Well, my first Fender was a '65 Mustang rewired with lamp wire. I have seen that used in guitars many times since. I must attract these turds.
