I never do interviews- but I finally gave in to Zac. Check it out

Danocaster Guitars is one of the most beloved and in-demand small-shop builders, yet next to nothing is known about Dan Strain and his small team that builds...

CHANGE OF PLANS !!

Sorry - this post is long overdue - I just dont use FB much anymore

SO - after a nice break and the urging of friends - I have decided to CONTINUE TO BUILD - indefinitely - but with a pretty major re-design of the business model.

There will be no more custom orders at all - no lists / no names taken... I will just continue to build guitars that inspire and excite me - like these "lace painted" offsets !! - and sell them 1st come / 1st served on Instagram ( danocaster_guitars ).

There is a little price increase and fewer being produced - but they are better than ever !!

And MOST IMPORTANTLY - I'm building with a lot of joy and fun again and I feel it shows in the new guitars.

There is a little more info on my website but I wanted to let those that dont know - I'm doing fantastic and there are brand new Danos being built every day !

Feel free to swing by Insta and see what I'm doing. If ya wanna buy one - you'll wanna set an alert because they usually sell within the 1st few miniutes !
