I bought the Dano 63 baritone a couple of month ago and really liked it. Just traded a Yamaha 335-clone for the Dano 63 guitar, and that my friends is a really good sounding guitar with its own voice.
Great clean tones and distorted it also sounds very good.
I can�t believe that a guitar built by plywood and masonite, and in China, could be so good and well built. The picups are so good that I would say that you buy two pickups and get a decent guitar for free.
Highly recommended!! It�s cheap too, around US $250. |

They have to be good. They've lasted so long.
I don't know if you know, but Jimmy Page used a Dano, and it sounded soooo hot . I think he upgraded some parts though.
I tried to find a Dano guitar in Australia, and can't find one. I'm annoyed that in the USA people can just go into a shop and buy one for $300. They are so rare here. |

Sounds very reminiscent of the original Danos. Everybody noticed how seemingly cheap they felt, but they also noticed how they oozed tone!
Some things never change... |

| Actually, it does sport a female bottom-end shape, chambered core, & who can argue with surf-green!? |

Yes I am Dr Bob, and she sure sound extremely good!
I have changed the pots and the capacitor, the only thing from this China made instrument that was of lesser quality, if you can accept plywood and masonite bodies�
Don�t tell my wife it�s a �she�, the wife complains that I spend more time with my guitars than with her�. And, of course, that�s true

Nice one Goran........as DeFrag mentioned there is a new 'dead on ' series out now...there featured in this months 'Guitarist' magazine,there called the 'Dead on 67'. seems to have a bit more of a fender vibe to them with a tremolo plus the bodies are made out of basswood.... |

Very cool guitar there, Goran. The pickguard looks a bit strange, but hey, tone is more important than looks!
