Guitars
When it comes to building guitars, Daniel tends to think outside the box. His guitars run form mild to wild (but mostly wild).
Using local materials and US vendors, Daniel takes pride in artistically creating a guitar from start to finish. 90% of what he builds from his shop in Maine is a custom 1 off, but he will always take orders and build to meet the needs of his demanding customers. Churning out everything from 1 off replicas to fully 3D carved tops, his guitars have graced the hands of some of the industry's top touring pros.
Daniel takes special care to note that his custom, hand finished paint schemes are not factory under 10 coats of acrylic clear coat. “You might as well be playing a plastic guitar. The sound resonates off the body.” Daniel's hand finishes aren't known for being factory-flawless. They're known for looking great and sounding excellent. The bottom line is, a guitar should play and sound outstanding.
