et voilà les infos si vous voulez commander une danocaster:
Hey and thanks for the email inquiry -
I no longer do "custom builds" where somebody can spec out every detail. But I get so many emails from guys who are like " I'm a pro player - out on tour - and I can't be online long enough to be the 1st in line. Can you just make me something ? ".. that now I will make something w/ you in mind.. You get a great guitar and I still get to "do my thing"
I figure , if you haven't even played the guitar yet , it doesn't make sense to say " I want this and this and this and this " and have me just put it all together and hope for the best.. I can build something w/ you in mind and tweak it to make it as good as I can - with the understanding that you want a "twangy T" - or a "double cut" that's a "blues / rock machine" - or whatever. But trust that I'm doing this to ensure I'm putting out the best guitars I can - and not just working off someone's checklist.
Also, I typically try more than one set of pickups in a guitar - trying to find the best "voice" for each instrument. I use custom winds by Lollar, Peter Florance (Voodoo), Budz, Mick Brierley, and Rocketfire
so you can tell me the body color , your choice of ash or alder body , rosewood or maple fingerboard, and choose between these neck profiles - as well as tell me the kinds of tones you're chasing
As far as the neck , I basically offer 3 neck profiles:
Medium C - .83 at fret 1 - based on my '66
Chunky C - .86 at fret 1 - based on my '64
Super Soft V - .88 at fret 1 - based on my '56
all necks are 1.65" nut width , 9.5" radius , and are fretted w/ Jescar medium jumbos ( .095 x .047 ) - much like a 6105 that's been dressed a few times. A great fret that everybody seems to love !
I typically keep things pretty "vintage correct" ( so I'm not interested in making a sea foam green guitar w/ a black pickguard, for instance ) but as long as you aren't after anything out of the ordinary - I'm sure I can accommodate whatever it is you are after
* NOTE: I can offer "light aging" overall - but I don't offer shiny new or "NOS" finishes. And I typically wouldn't match a worn neck and worn parts w/ a body that does not have the same level of aging. Honestly , the aging process is one of my favorite parts and I don't like too much "art direction" or detailed instructions on how you want it aged. Just know that I'm going for "authentic" looking wear.
here is a link to my SmugMug page where you can see hundreds of Danocasters :

Most of my "single cut" and "double cut" models are $2100 and "offset" models come w/ your choice of either the Staytrem or the Mastery Bridge and are $2250. There is a $200 "good faith" deposit to start your build and I'll send you final specs and pics when it's done..you can pay the remaining balance then
