Mark Wein Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 oops I uploaded it straight from iMovie and that must be the default setting. Fixed now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tweedledee Posted June 16, 2012 Members Share Posted June 16, 2012 Nice demo, Mark! I'm not sure what's very "Tele-ish" about it other than the bridge. To me it seems like a mix of some Tele elements but with more of an early 60s Epiphone Wilshire vibe as far as looks are concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You;re the second person to point that out Honestly I think about his guitars as tele's because Tom's guitar is a bit more tele-like but you guys are right the more I think about it...

Members vintage clubber Posted June 17, 2012 Members Share Posted June 17, 2012 love the look of the guitar in the 2nd video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doctor Morbius Posted June 17, 2012 Members Share Posted June 17, 2012 Sweet! Both of those guitars sound great, IMO. Are you sure those aren't Kluson styled tuning machines instead of Gibson styled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct. My brain is Jello after a day with the kids at Disneyland yesterday. I like Kluson style tuners a lot.... I have them on both les Paul's and Gotoh version on all of my strats.

Mark Wein Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 I want one! Here's where you can see the rest of his stuff: http://web.me.com/dandunham/Site/welcome.html Other than seeing the guitars through Tom Harkenrider I don't have any relationship with the company so I'm not getting a spiff for this or anything (I do have a guitar coming from another builder where that is not the case but that won't be here for a few months) but I dig seeing local small builders get off the ground. Dans guitars have more in common with 60's era Stratotone and Italian guitars than anything modern. Here is the guitar he built for Junior Watson: Some video of Junior playing the guitar in my studio for a webcast last year: [video=youtube;ieESrp40Gos] Lightweight neck-through design built around vintage DeArmond pickups, developed in conjunction with Junior Watson. Built to capture the big, dynamic sound of 50s primitives, with Italian lines. Proprietary pickups and other options in development. The one shown above has a candy pumpkin fade finish, with fake gator on the back. Shown at right, a fire-engine red.
