Got A Danocater

Post by j mascis » Fri May 11, 2018 4:40 pm

I bought it used a few months ago, but forgot to post.

Best guitar I've ever owned. I've played vintage 60 jazzmasteres and jaguars and this guitar beats them.
What I love is the "mongrel" pickup configuration. I was craving a humbuckers but can't stand Gibsons tuning instability, and never liked the overly twangy bridge pickup on teles, so this is a perfect hybrid.

I'd play that! Potentially stupid question, but what is a "mongrel" pick up configuration? P90/Humbucker? If so, that is definitely one of my favorites, I have that in my Univox.

I guess "mongrel" just means something out of the ordinary, because usually you get matching pickup types with Fender and Gibson.

Good call on Neil Young.

I've seen "Mongrel" on the Danos that have two P90s in Teles and also this config of a P90 with a humbucker.

Thanks, dudes. I'm not a fan of black, but felt it worked on this one with the silver P90 for contrast and zebra humbucker to bring it all together. The V neck on the danos is amazing.

That's stunning. The double binded black really pops!
