Retirement Announcement
As of January 2017 I retired (again)! I've had a great time making instruments for my friends and making new friends in the process. But the time has come to open some new doors and do some of the things we've thought about but haven't gotten around to while we still can. I'll still mess around with dobros to be sure, but only as a hobby. I'm looking forward to trying out some more 'hairbrained schemes' in design and construction, but only when time permits and the mood strikes. Thanks so much to all of you
"I've played several of Dan's resonator guitars over the years since he started building them. He has the most unique design features I've ever seen in a reso, and it works! Every one has a crisp, clear and resonant sound quality to it, and the tone - it just makes you want to play it. And the workmanship is impeccable. Pleasing to the ear, pleasing to the eye. With every one I've played - well, I just couldn't put it down!" Roger Williams
