Glenn, I'm a large! Tell me how much to send to cover everything; tee-shirt/mailing. PM me.
Thank you! I'll get a photo posted with me wearing it...

PS - Ask your son if that's a red stained rosewood fingerboard on the axe that Bendy is playing. Flag guitar, red, white and blue and is that a vintage Bigsby tailpiece on that thing? Along with the P-90 pick-up that guitar is some package... brilliant! John
John I'll get back to you on the fingerboard wood. I can't remember LOL. I know the rest of the guitar is Spanish Cedar and semi hollow. Soon as I get the T shirt info I'll let you know.
The fingerboard is Honduran Rosewood.

He sells them right on his site which is cool for $19 shipped. I need to see if I can get a couple for cost maybe. But there's a few styles. See which you like the best.

Yep we went to his shop in Cliffton NJ a few weeks back. If your a amp guy you'd drool over all the NOS old stock parts he has! His amps have a killer tone too, amazing! Super nice guy too.
VGM did a review on Dan's Paragon a while back. I forgot about this one. Gives a little background on him and what he does.

Glenn - Is that Dan playing in the video? I clicked on a couple of the vids. I especially enjoyed his version of Honey-Pie! Cool guitars, great, fat sound. Very vintage sounding for 'new' guitars. I also love that he winds his own pick-ups. Vintage hand wounds go for a small fortune. Those pick ups will sound better and better with age. It turns out that the oil from the skin of the people who wind pick ups by hand (guide the wire using hands) imparts electrical and sound qualities that machine wound pick ups do not have. I just think it's a really cool old-school touch.
You must be very proud of him. I wish him well and all the success in the world.

Hi John that's his friend Mike Copolla and Mike's daughter (forget her name sorry) at the Montreal Guitar show. Mike is a very fine jazz player and Dan built him a custom 1 off 9 string. His daughter is playing one of his Paragons. she has perfect pitch by ear and is a really good player too. Anyway they were able to do the demo's for him at that show a couple of years ago.
Yes he loves to wind his own pickups. After trying several brands out there and not liking the sound of them he decided to do his own.
He's a good kid and works hard. Yes I'm very proud of him indeed.
