Convince Me I'm Not In Love

Post by julius_deane »

So I played a bunch of guitars at the stupid Guitar Center this weekend when I had little else to do. Mostly some Teles that didn't impress me, but . . .

I played a new Dano U2 single cut with the humbucker, and, well, aside from the knobs, I pretty much loved it.

So now, you're job is to convince me I don't want it. Not too hard, right?

Go!

Dano hates fags, legitimately.

Buy used.

Necks too small on those things, and the company's run by a douche.
I agree with smile_man, if you must by Dano, buy used.
Used to have a Korean U2 and I liked it for slide, but I'd never play one as my main guitar.
Good deals done with all these guys

I saw a used one go for $125 at a local shop, they can be had on the cheap if you search around a bit.

As I've said before...why not buy Jerry Jones instead?..they seem better quality, and not made by Danelectro..

..staying out of the actual argument involve in the issue, just saying..:idk:

^by American-politics-logic he's obviously a Nazi sympathizer who will be found in a dark Thai alley with a little boy. Named Danny. Who's only little in certain areas.

probably has something to do with him wanting a grand for his masonite guitar, and danelectro asks a third of that (and that you support the hate of homosexuals, and korean production) :idk:

Anyway, I have a dano (I BOUGHT IT FROM MY BROTHER DONT WORRY) and it's pretty rad. I need to redo the wiring, as the switch broke and I can only use one pickup. But they are very twangy and jangly and sound nice. Fun to play too! You said the one at the store has a humbucker? Why would you do that? Lipstick pickups are part of the sound, unless its a lipstick humbucker, which would probably be just as silly...

Yeah, they have new ones that are two lipsticks routed as a humbucker, just on the bridge. The neck is still a single coil. I dunno, I like humbuckers. Maybe it's because I always play guitars through my amp or an amp just like mine setup in the same way, but I just don't like single coils much. I like meat. (Well, from my guitars, not in my stomach). I also think that's partially because I only look at cheap guitars; too my ears, cheap humbuckers are tolerable; cheap single coils are not.

Anyways, I like low end. Maybe I'm just an idiot. :idk:

Oh, and thanks for the input everyone!

What am I? Rich? If I dropped that much on something new, it's going to be an amp. Or a car! I can't see myself ever spending more than $500 on a guitar. I won't bore you with why.

Thanks again, everyone.

I just mean, it's a dano, they aren't really renowned for low end or anything. It's all about that shrill jangle. The humbucker seems out of place there. But I guess it work in that silly dano way :lol:
