Members OldGuitarPlayer Posted June 21, 2012 Members Share Posted June 21, 2012 Looks great! He does some very nice work.Jaguar/Jazzmaster tremolos are incredibly tuning-stable. Really? I must check one out. I have never played a Jaguar or Jazzmaster. They look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rog951 Posted June 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 21, 2012 Really? I must check one out. I have never played a Jaguar or Jazzmaster. They look cool. I hadn't really spent any time with offset type guitars before picking this one up but I'm pretty impressed with the tuning stability so far. The bridge actually rocks slightly when you use the trem so the strings don't tend to drag over the saddles, and I guess that reduces the likelihood of a string hanging up? Of course, it won't do octave dives like a Floyd, but it serves its purpose. I was also surprised to find that you can pull up slightly as well.

Members TeleFromHelly Posted June 21, 2012 Members Share Posted June 21, 2012 Awesome git-box. How do they compare price-wise to Fender? I'm guessing Custom shop range? I'd almost rather have the Dano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd almost rather have the Dano As far as I can tell, a Dano "T" or "S" model runs a little under $2k, and an offset model runs right about $2k. Mine was a little more due to the vintage 'guard. Not sure how much Fender Custom Shop guitars run but I can tell you I don't spend this kind of money very often and I feel a little dirty. That said, I know that Danos usually retain their value pretty well so that makes me feel a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brandass Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 Not a relic fan, at all, but that's an exceptionally nice example - I'd rock that thing in a heartbeat. Congrats!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Danhedonia Posted June 22, 2012 Members Share Posted June 22, 2012 That's a really nice guitar. Unfortunately, you must now send it to me, so I may have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
